Re: rough time

@CheerBear i cant find the thread u tagged me on earlier so will just type here.
I brought a multicoloured yarn and will just keep going till that runs out. I might need to buy a second one and join it up as i dont think its going yo be big enough to make a blanket. I wont tell u which yarn i brought otherwise youll know the next colours lol. Im about to move to the third colour. This one will be orange.

Oooh did you get a yarn cake @outlander 😁 They're so fun!

It's going to look beautiful! Are you enjoying it?

In response to: Re: rough time

Re: rough time

Yes i did @CheerBear what an odd name for wool lol. Yes i am enjoying it. I havent been able to do as much cause of committments plus i done it for over an hr straight and my hand decided it didnt like that ( i need an eye roll emoji here!) I got side tracked earlier and had to pull 2 rows apart because guess who didnt pay attention to the stitches ! 🙈 5 where it shouldve been 3 and then 2 where there shouldve been 3.

I thought about making some hair elastics or a different crochet blanket technique but i cant read the directions. 😔 its not sinking it and just makes me go 'huh' Will have to find a YouTube link on them.

Re: rough time

I'm the same with yarn patterns. I just do blankets with crocheting. Challenging for your hand I can definitely relate to. I now have arthritis in my Rt wrist & thumb joint 😞 and the shoulder bursitis & related arm tendinitis ;( ouchy to do these repetitive fine motor skills. Do you havevabhysio for your hand? Any recommendations to strengthen or support your wrist?

Re: rough time

I'm feeling quite flat tonight lil Sis @outlander

I'm worried that I'm trying to hold so much together that I will fall apart after my mother leaves.

Re: rough time

Im making my first blanket. Only learnt to crochet a few days ago. Just the one pattern though. Thatll have to do for now.
Yeah ive got physio exercises and wrist supports and things she said it might take abother yr or 2 or 3 or more to become fully ok again and to rid of the carpal tunnel syndrome properly but im happy to just be able to use my hand again. I cant usually concentrate longer than half hr anyway so i guess it work out ok. @Former-Member
That sounds very ouchy to just have in general let alone doing alot of repetitive movements!
