I crocheted a Virus shawl in a color changing cotton yarn. The colors shifted from a bright pink to a bright blue. Soon after I finished it my cousin suffered a devastating loss—her special needs 26 year old daughter Samantha passed away. I felt the need to send my cousin the shawl—a hug from me. My cousin thanked me and said the colors were the same as the colors of the Disney princesses Samantha loved.
I wear kimonos👘. I received them as gifts or bought them when they were cheap. The color, pattern, and age no longer suit them, and they will be left in the closet for years. It's a waste. So I remodeled them. I unraveled the sweaters and knitted them into hats and scarves. When I unraveled the kimono, it became a 4-meter piece. I wanted to try making skirts, bags, and tissue holders. It's a "wasteful" spirit. If you change the shape, it can still be used and can be reborn as something that can be changed and used even more. It will be reborn as a cushion, patchwork quilt, or eco bag. I will think of ideas with the help of my grandmother's wisdom. It's a fun time. It will turn into a happy joy. It will become a treasure and will be loved by children. The sight of them cherishing and playing with it for a long time makes me feel happy, warm, and healed. Don't throw it away, but think about remodeling it. I think this time is important. Let's laugh and use our brains to get healthy.

Such a very special gift. Sometimes a project just knows exactly where it needs to go. Thank you for sharing. <3
