CHECKING IN WITH JONAH LARSON, CROCHET PRODIGY


Last night I picked up my crochet hook to keep my hands busy. I looked online for an easy single crochet mesh pattern. I did a small sample from a small remnant of yarn. Then I wanted to find a chevron pattern and as Google has it, the cookies crumbs brought me this youtube video this afternoon, of this young boy named Jonah Laren who crochets without even looking at his hands.

You've got to take the time to look at this amazing young boy crochet. He's an inspiration to all of us. 

So, I guess I'll be crocheting again this winter.

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.

    What an amazing young man! Holy cow! He's a special angel for sure. Already has a library with his name on it and what a skill. To think he started out with such humble beginnings and yet he's still so humble and sweet even with all his fame. Great video Julia. Actually made me teary eyed! My Mom was an amazing crocheter and even crocheted my sister's wedding gown! Of course I was thinking of Mom the whole time while watching this sweet kiddo!

    I tried to learn to crochet. And failed.
    I hope you enjoy your time with the hook and the yarn.
    Stay safe, stay healthy and have fun.

    Thanks for sharing. I had seen him in the past so it was good to see an update. Hard to believe someone so young is publishing his second book!

    Oh Goodness Julia, I am so happy you shared this video with us. It is just what I needed to see.
    There is GOOD in our lands, even if we are hearing only about the bad.

    Good Morning Julia,
    My Mom was that good with a crochet hook. I have never seen anyone like that until watching this sweet boy.
    I have a table cloth she did right before she passed away. She did a lot of us while watching us play in the ocean.
    I hope you have a lovely week.
