Have I ever mentioned how much I dislike the month of February? February has never been a good month for me and this year .... Well, this year, February simply sucks. First, I had that stomach bug that lasted four or five days. Then I got the cold/sinus thing which is still hanging around two weeks later. And for the icing on the February cake, we've spent the last 36+ hours in the ER. My husband had a bit of a health scare but after about 45 thousand tests/procedures and even more medicines, they hope to send him home shortly. We're just waiting for the final approval from the doctor.
And, I finished the Rambling Rows blanket. That photo is the best I can do from ER. I never got around to taking a photo of the finished blanket. But yeah, I went with the icord border and am glad I did. I don't know why I was dreading it so much. The icord knitting went super fast - much, much faster than a garter border would have been. After being on the To Knit list for four years, I'm pretty dang excited to be done with that blanket. I even already got the loose ends woven in!
Maybe February doesn't suck so bad after all.
Oh, no....you have had the rotten luck this month. I hope your Mister is on the mend and I totally get that divorce thing. After a hip and knee replacement last year my Mister has been on my list too.
ReplyDeleteOn a happier note, I always found hospital knitting to be very productive. I knit like the wind when I'm stressed so projects fly off the needles. I can't wait to see your blanket's mug shot.
I didn't have any knitting with me! Well, actually, I did but it was an old project I'd just pulled out of the Needs to Be Finished pile and instead of a pattern being in the bag, there was a post-it-note telling me which book the pattern was in. Thankfully I had a sashiko project stuffed down in the bottom of my bag. That saved me.
DeleteUgh, I am sorry this month has been such a terrible one! Here's hoping that March brings good health for everyone!
ReplyDeleteThanks, and me too! I am definitely looking forward to a new month.
