I thought I would do a quick little post, so you can see that I'm still alive. I have been off to a rocky start this year. One of my doctors thought I might have cancer, but my other one, disagreed. I've been through a whole round of testing and it looks like my second doctor was right. Everything (so far) is negative, so yay for me! I still have some more tests to do, but I'm in a happier frame of mind, as you can imagine!
I do have lots of fun stuff to share, but I thought I'd just start with these cute little kitchen scrubbies. I knit them for little stocking stuffer gifts for all the women in my family.
The yarn is Red Heart's Scrubby in Cherry. I used this cute free pattern from
Simply Notable. It's all done in garter stitch and is a quick and easy knit on U.S. Size 8 needles.
I thought the yarn would be difficult to knit with, but it wasn't bad. It is a little rough, but then that's its purpose. It's 100% polyester. Also, there's no stitch definition with it, so a garter stitch project is perfect.
The best part is that they actually seem to work! Always a plus.
Have a happy Valentine's Day. I hope you get to hug whoever is sweetest in your life.
Happy for your positive report from the doctor. Best wishes!
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled to hear that you got a second opinion and that you are cancer free. I hope whatever lead you to the doctor is now being treated and that you start feeling better soon.
