Fingerless Mitts KAL


Well,


Have problems with arthritis - in a lot of pain - had to lay off the knitting a bit. Finished another pair of mitts - in the middle of a cardigan for Hannah but think will have to rest this week.


I hate feeling this way.

Fingerless Mitts for Fall KAL







Hello Everyone,
Have finally managed to borrow a camera! although my photography skills are not that good.Both sets of fingerless mitts were made using yarn I bought at a bazaar for $2.00. The lighter yellow ones would be good for spring - I absolutely love the pattern. The green (although they look blueish) I adapted to be shorter - not so sure if I like them this way. The yarn is some sort of super soft wool (no labels).
Currently working on two other of my own designs. Fun stuff.Carolyn

It's Getting Better...!

Well, how quickly things can change.

Someone (Jim F.) came back from lunch and had bought me a big booster juice with echinea and other wonderful vitamins...then, someone (Bob D.) bought me a very large Kitkat from the Fund Raising Choc Box at main reception and then Mary the receptionist bought me a slice of cheese pizza as a present. What a lucky girl (or else they were all just sick of looking at my long face all morning) - and oh what a happy girl (now!)

Today is not so Great!

It's been a dismal rainy morning and I have had a throbbing headache which has not gone away even after 2 Tylenol and I have not heard from my Xmas Swap Partner, so am down (but not out!) today.

It will pick up (eventually!)

Today is Beautiful

Today is beautiful. The sun is shining. It is warm - 23 degrees. I had a great weekend. I managed to almost complete a pair of fingerless mitts for the KAL and I got my Christmas Around the World Knit Swap Partner. I actually found time to write something. Now how is that for being so lucky, lucky, lucky.
