Needles for the ages

How many times have you heard, “Grandma, whatcha doin’?" and  Grandma replies, “Come here and I’ll show you.” 

I can only imagine this same conversation between a ten- to-twelve-year-old Beverly Jockisch and her grandmother Woost. Maybe it was out of boredom or plain curiosity that made Beverly pick up a pair of crocheting hooks so many years ago, and she hasn’t put them down since.
