Knitting Injury !

Yes, really!! I was at the top of the stairs and saw a pile of dirty washing that I had plonked there to take downstairs so I put down my knitting and picked up the pile at the same time and crunch! brain thought body could do these two seperate movements at the same time but body said no! no! no! so my jokes about knitting being an extreme sport have come true! I do get bad backs like this and now will spend the rest of the week having hot baths and walking like Mrs Overall ( for the uninitiated google Victoria Wood!) So whoever orders rhe next poppy teacosy at Bespoke Country will never know the blood sweat and tears that have gone into it! So onto a few resolutions...didn't manage ten but there's enough for me!
1.seriously cut back on oats so simple golden syrup flavour (yummy!)
2.have a day off a week to make things and indulge my creativity.
3.walk up the hill to Red House and not get the bus.
4.really try hard at gardening, not just two great big tidy ups a year!
 Well, I think that's quite enough for me! check out  Fin and Gabs for Andrea's ressies (no chocolate? really??)

Do feel better soon. Drink lots and lots of comfort in a cup, that's a great idea! x

So sorry to hear about your knitting injury - these things happen so quickly - usually when trying to do several things at once! I really love your poppy tea cosy. Happy New Year. Helen x
