Just a short post from me today. Been into hospital and had my total knee replacement surgery! I am so glad to be home 😀. I took my crochet in but only did some whilst waiting to go to theatre as afterwards it was enough of an effort just to get myself to the bathroom and back!
Now I am resting most of the day with little walks and knee exercises inbetween. I have been so glad of my soft Liberty fabric patchwork quilt, my warm colourful ripple blanket and a new bright owl fabric cushion I made last week before I went in. All of these have helped add a little bit of comfort to a rather painful time!
My growing granny square and owl fabric cushion
The crochet is going to be a big granny square summer blanket using Rico Creative Cotton which is soft and not splitty at all
Well that’s all for now, time for my nap!😀
Linking up with Handmade Monday as usual over at Lucy Blossom Crafts
Glad the operation is over and done with, here’s to a speedy recovery. Hope you feel well enough to crochet soon:)
Aww, glad to hear you’re the other side of the op okay and on the mend, take it easy and feel better soon! x
Ooh I feel your pain as know the knee replacement is hard work but good on you and you will be better than before. Love your pillow and the new crochet square. Funny how when in hospital you go armed with things to do (I did when DH went in) but I got hardly anything done. Have plenty of rest and take care
Glad you op went well and you are back home. Hope you are soon up and about and pain free.
“I have been so glad of my soft Liberty fabric patchwork quilt, my warm colourful ripple blanket and a new bright owl fabric cushion I made last week before I went in.” – you almost made what you’ve just gone through sound appealing! It’s amazing what a few home-crafted comforts can achieve!
I’m glad things were OK for you with the op and all the very best for a steady recovery. Hopefully you can continue to find comfort in crocheting while you get yourself back to some sort of normality.
Take care,
Emma
Ouch !
Glad your on the mend
Visiting from Handmade Monday. What a lovely project and I hope you’re feeling better soon! Those colours alone must be cheering you!
Make sure you keep resting on that knee so that you recover quicker
