Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

panad, thank you for asking. You know when people say, ā€œI feel like Iā€™ve been hit by a busā€? Thatā€™s exactly how I feel! My bumps and bruises are sore but tolerable, but my arm is agony - Iā€™m not sure if itā€™s the fracture or the torn ligament but either way, it really hurts!

Still, Iā€™m feeling very grateful to have two functioning legs so Iā€™m getting outdoors for a walk every day. Thereā€™s nothing bad that couldnā€™t be worse.

I did attempt to do a row of knitting yesterday but it was a no, I canā€™t bend my elbow. Itā€™s going to be a mad panic to get circa 20 hats knit in time for Christmas for dadā€™s carers!

I think thatā€™s probably the route Iā€™ll have to take, HB. I havenā€™t completely abandoned hope yet, but Iā€™ve only knit 6 so far so it feels like misplaced optimism!

Socks finished! Realised on attempt 2 at the toes on the second sock that I *had* decreased correctly, I then didn't arrange the stitches correctly on the needles before doing the Kitchener stitch...

They are very lovely Jen. Iā€™ve made that exact mistake before, but with socks Iā€™ve decided.. No ripping backā€¦ they are only socks and a good place to make mistakes.
