I am 73 years of age and lost my Husband recently. I am still getting over that loss. My eyesight isn't as good as it used to be but I have been a machine knitter for over 40 years. My family of 2 sons and a grand daughter and Grandson are not needing knitwear any more and I only knit for a hobby now. I am needing to knit to keep my mind active. So I hope that I can be useful to you.  Ronda
