Sore Wrists

No new knitting to report today because my wrists have started hurting. I think it's due more to lifting Charlotte than to knitting, but I took the day off from my projects just in case. Tonight is the Knit n' Nosh at Knit Happens, and I want to be able to do something other than eat. I also have some knitting inclined friends visiting Saturday and Monday, so I was planning on lots of knitting over the next few days. Hopefully my wrists won't flare up again.

I hope your wrists feel better quickly. It is so hard not to be able to knit. Mine haven't felt great this week at all, I think I've knit for a total of 1/2 an hour since Sunday night.

Ouch. I remember having all kinds of aches and pains lifting and carrying toddlers around. It's hard to rest, though. Oh well - put your feet up and look at a knitting magazing - almost as satisfying as knitting!

Happy Mother's Day, Christina!

I have just been diagnosed with arthritis in my hands and it certainly takes away from my knitting time! Have you tried the white plastic knitting needles (Bryson I think)? They really help. Also heated hand cream - really relives the sore joints.

I'm part of the Fiona knintalong, too. I will be starting my bag on Saturday - just finishing up a project.

Best wishes with the wrists.
