Why are our all Embroidery designs in the Braille category free? Because we like the idea of making cool things available for our blind friends and their loved ones. (kittenstitches.com)

Awesome, thanks!

Many times, when someone loses their vision, they feel they can't continue their previous hobbies, because they can't see what to do. One of my roles is to help teach them how to modify their hobbies so they can do it. My wife taught me how to knit, and I've ended up teaching a few clients how to knit as well (although I just do simply stuff, like scarves).

Oh! Cool! Good to meet you! I’ve been thinking about doing a video or something on French knots, so people can hand embroider Braille. I think I’ll keep you in the loop. And let me know if there are any assistive files I can build for whatever you are doing.
