My journey with crochet began through the mentorship of a Rastaman
Once I learned the skills to design and create with crochet, I started teaching friends and youths in my community. I now have a program to offer this gift of meditative practice through the art of crochet. When I see and talk to former students, I always receive gratitude. They strongly believe that learning the art of crochet gave them values that apply in their lives today.
Many thanks to you, Brother for your inspiration and lessons. I don't think you know how timely your workshop was for me, but the crocheting accompanied with your reasoning were direct messages of wisdom and I thank you for standing in your truth.

Thank you so much Legin! You’ve empowered so many people - textile artists or not - to MAKE something. I teach textile workshops often but most of my crowd are always already practicing some sort of textile art. I was happy to see a diverse group of people in the room and I could sense that I wasn’t the only one in the room feeling so empowered and inspired. Thank you!

While learning about crochet, I found it pretty difficult to do at first. But the workshop helped me to be patient by taking my time.
