About Me

What next, I wondered when retiring from a house in Baltimore to New York City apartment. How will I shape that unknown, life-after-paidwork? Began with indoor Kitchen Composting on the 21st floor. Promoted it by knitting 150 interpretations of red wiggler worms, finding people all over the world to Knit One Red Worm [www.Cityworm.com] Moved on to Knit A Condom Amulet Project, my second blog.

By the time Vogue Knitting wrote about my enviro efforts in “Knitting Activists,” NO WAR patches were on the needles. Current knit invention, Condom Amulets, practical little pouches to ward off HIV/AIDS. Safe sex alert for women over 50, growing at-risk population at risk. Now you know: tell someone you care about.

Yarnlife includes hats, sweaters for grandkids. Spouse joined in when he decided to spin wool and knit after retiring. Elderblogging is my path to conversations with other active women about our lives at 60-plus.
