Working on round 12 of Renulek's 2014 spring doily. There are 25 "points" on the doily. I have 15 done and I'm on to 16 as I type. I should have this round wrapped up in a day or two if I feel OK. This measures 18" across at the moment. I am using size 20 Lizbeth. I think it will go to 20". I have not yet blocked or ironed it. It does need it, but I want to get that last round (13) done and do it all at once. The Pop-A-Bobbin is pink ivory. Pretty wood. Feels nice.
When I say feel OK, I still have a little discomfort from the surgery. It has been almost 3 months and I am doing much better, but I still have rehab at the gym and walking very far causes the irritation to flare up. I was able to go to Hobby Lobby a couple weeks ago and slowly walk the store, leaning on a buggy. I also went to Walmart a few days ago (2nd store attempt). It caused more irritation so I am just going slow. I will eventually be over it. Enough crying. Back to the 16th "point".
Looking good, I like your colours. Three months is a long time for recuperation, hang in there.
ReplyDeleteGive yourself time to heal and then get back to those goals. Everyday life will be possible with careful work. Kinda like tatting!
