That’s the rule for using crutches on steps – up with the good leg, down with the bad leg. Consulting other knee reconstruction blogs I realize my recovery is typical. Sort of like getting comfort when frogging, from other knit bloggers. The main obstacle today was not being able to remove the garbage bag from my leg after a shower; it was tied a bit too tightly. Luckily I found a pair of scissors within hobbling reach.
This is certainly a challenge for me as I don’t do life in slow motion very well. When my body is running down the stairs to my office, my head is already at my desk. It’s no wonder I’ve had so many knee accidents and all my little kid pictures show me with bruised legs. I’ve never taken the time to concentrate on where my feet should be in relation to the rest of my body. It’s never too late, I guess.
More knitting (feather and fan scarf, I’m having difficulty photographing the colour accurately) and flowers (aren’t they beautiful, from my Board of Directors):
If I had known how much fun a feather and fan scarf was to knit, I would have a stash of them by now. Why I love feather and fan:
1. It knits to a nice rhythm.
2. With three easy rows and one pattern row, it works as no-mind, movie watching knitting.
3. It requires less yarn than other patterns – its laciness blocks up in size – wonderful for exotic yarns when you don’t want to spend too much.
4. It drapes nicely.
5. Perfect for solid or variegated yarns.
Later this week – I’ll show you where I knit as I’ve been tagged by Chris.
