I had my stroke in December and I have still not regained movement in my left hand or arm.
I was crocheting a scarf before my stroke and spent £30 on wool, and I'd like to finish it!
Does anybody know of an aid I could use to tension the wool in place of my left hand, so I can crochet with my right hand?
I have a knitting aid which holds the left hand needle rigid.
Jane, did you manage to find anything to enable you to finish your scarf?

uses a vice.
Knittingaid.co.uk is a specially designed aid, quite pricey at £89, but if you love to knit may be worth it.
Like JaneG56 i had a stroke in 2014 which left me in the same position but loved knitting rather than crochet but somehow i have managed to knit again but slightly different. I am slower than before & hold my needles differently but am now knitting, it’s the sewing up i struggle with. I returned to my craft group (which involves more sewing) so far with help i can cut out patterns and sew but if i get into difficulty one of the ladies helps. If you find an aid to help you crochet i would love to give it a go.
