I decided to respond to a request for volunteers to knit fidget sleeves for Alzheimer patients who live in our local Care facility. Fortunately we received a bag of sample knitting pieces at the Thrift store and I was able to join pieces together to form colorful sleeves that stretch from wrist to crook of the arm. Buttons, beads and other donated embellishments were stitched on for the patients to "fidget with".
In total I managed to create 17 sleeves while watching boring TV shows!
It was fun and, hopefully, will bring comfort to restless hands.
