>> Did you know that you can crochet with one hand IF you have something to hold the hook near your body? <<
You can also do it by holding the hook
under your arm
, in
an arm brace
or a
grip strap
, a
foam block
under your knee, or between your knees.
This gallery
shows many holds, including several adaptive ones.
There are a LOT of possibilities.
>>What I really need is a small clamp/vice to clamp the hook into that I can attach to my belt with a couple belt clips.<<
