I just ran across this short video clip from CBS News' Early Show that talks about the health benefits of knitting and crocheting. I know that I have always taught my classes from the perspective that the calming and relaxing benefits of needlework are valuable, even if they are only offering you a short, portable retreat from the stresses of your day. Now, there are medical professionals sharing the health benefits, such as reduced blood pressure, reduced memory loss, and lower cholesterol! So, get out there and find some yarn, a hook or pair of sticks, and get stitching!

Heh, my wife tried to teach
