When I want to knit, but can't

By -

 



My Tea Time wrap is near the finish.  I am happy with it.  My  hands and arms are sore and I'm not sure why.  I can on1y knit a bit on it.   I'm not shakey anymore, but I think those musc1es are tired.  

I gasp, if I think, I cant knit.  So I go in short bursts.  No marathon knitting, which I adore!  

I want you to know I am reading your b1ogs and enjoying them.  I just cannot a1ways respond because of the 1 situation  . If my emai1 is required I can't 1eave a post.  But, Soon I wi11 remedy it a11.  And you can catch me on instagram too. I do enjoying seeing Dee,  and Steph and many others of you there.  

Fingers crossed I'11 knit easy today!  Oh and the SUN is shining!

Pretty colour in that wrap. We are getting more snow today--UGH!--and no sunshine at all. I am so sick of this winter.

I'm not able to knit very long, either, these days. Too much stress on my shoulders and neck, and my hands are protesting the cotton yarn I'm using. But I get several rows in almost every day.

Are you getting a new computer? Trying another keyboard?

Glad you got some sunshine! Sorry to hear you can only knit a little bit before getting sore. Hope that issue quits soon.

That's a lot of knitting! Whenever I have to do long stretches of knitting my whole left side hurts starting under my arm. The Olympics are killing me because all I want to do when I see all that snow is knit.
Yay for sunshine. We had it yesterday and it was glorious. I cleaned all day-even the windows and doors. Today we've got snow but nothing is sticking. It's still nice to see coming down while I catch up on the games this morning.

Changing needle and yarn sizes on different projects helps keep my hands from hurting.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
