The last time I used the knitting sticks was when grunge was go, hair was permed and pert was a word that I could use in reference to myself.
It has been a while.
Yesterday I spent 7 hours being Mum's chemo buddy. We take turns and all love it - when you are 1 of 5 kids having mum to yourself is a rare and special thing.
I had a one on one tutorial with an expert.
Knitting is like riding a bike.
And very therapeutic.
Crochet not so much. It made my brain hurt and my Mum laugh.
My crochet makes people laugh too - in unfortunate circumstances what a lovely opportunity has come to you, time alone with your mum.
ReplyDeleteAh...pert.
ReplyDeleteSigh.
After the initial head hurt, I promise crochet is even easier than riding a bike. But at least you scored a few laughs!
You made your Mum laugh! Wasn't that the purpose of spending the day with her??
ReplyDeleteAnd the crochet thing does get easier!
