Crocheting(and knitting too- I guess- I don't knit or know) is being used in some programs for homeless women as a learning activity, a way to make something lovely and useful and also as a psychological tool. The programs generally ask for donated hooks and yarn due to cost and also as with supermarkets, there are not craft stores in the inner city- and the few IYS in cities are usually too pricey and not well located for someone with limited money.
