My work table hasn't seen much action - apart from a bit of Tilly Tea Dance admin. - getting a few mini sheep landscapes mounted for Etsy and local shops.
I think the bug I had over Christmas is still lurking - either that or I am getting old! I seem to run out of bounce quicker than I usually do.
So, to fill the odd lazy hour or two, I am back knitting a few more twiddle mitts for the hospital. They will use them with their patients suffering from dementia. I try to add buttons, ribbons, knitty bits etc so that there are lots of textures to investigate and things to twiddle.
I knitted the little heart as a Christmas tree decoration and then forgot about it. I think it makes a cheery addition to the latest little mitt.
Well that's it for this week.
See you next week!!
xx Jo
Sorry you are still not fully recovered - hope you find your bounce soon! Love the twiddle mitts though. Happy WOYWW Helen #1
ReplyDeleteHi Jo, love all the twiddle mitts. So many bugs still about- I recall either reading, or being told, that mild winters are worse for this sort of thing, as a good hard, cold winter kills off many bugs. Love the sheepy pictures, they are so sweet.Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #3 X
ReplyDeleteAs always Tilly's little pictures are adorable - such a talented girl isn't she. I hope you get your bounce back soon, there are so many nasty bugs around at the moment and they seem to lurk around for ages after the worst is over. Glad to see you are up to twiddle-knitting!

Max's sheep are fabulous, I must get my hands on one soon it would go great with my poppies. Sorry to hear that flu is still lingering, hubby & my Mum can not seem to shift it, when there's a sign it's gone there's a drip of the nose or an ache or two come to visit... Hope you feel much better soon, those twiddle mitts sure are great things, I love the addition of the heart.

I'm late visiting today but have been head down sewing all day and have now finished the next 5 Memory characters apart from their labels so have decided to call it a day now and will do them fresh in the morning.
ReplyDeleteLove the latest pics and the twiddlers Jo.

Sorry your still not fully recovered from that nasty bug. Best to listen to your body and take it easy - you'll recover all the quicker. The twiddle muffs are fantastic and the wee heart is lovely. Take care. Hugs, Ellie x #20

ReplyDeleteYour twiddlemitts are always so interesting, Jo. Hope you are improving in health-the lingering cough seems to be the worst effect of the virus.
ReplyDeleteHope you get over the bug soon. I have not heard of twiddle mitts before, seems like a great idea. #31 Angela x
ReplyDeleteYou aren’t the first I’ve heard suggesting that this virus is a malingerer, anGP friend has said you should give it six weeks minimum and maintain high fluid intake all that time. Blimey, Twitters, I do hope you achieve par soon. On the other hand, the sitting down and knitting can do you no harm and is a wonderfully beneficial thing for other people too, you marvel.
