Striped Scarf Progress
Last night, I was in a knitting mood, so I got out my Noro Striped scarf. I hadn't worked on it for a month, because, once again, I wasn't sure I liked it. I had feared I'd have to unravel, like I did last time, and assume (after a second failed attempt) That I just wasn't meant to knit one. Then Ravelry saved the day. I found a thread dedicated

ReplyDeleteBy the way pray some more for me, when the nurse came today I have a small section of my wound opening back up. she said BE SURE AND DO NOTHING THE NEXT FEW DAYS. How can I do that.....
We sure will. I know it's hard to do absolutely nothing, but you're going to have to try. When this is healed for good, you can do all you want. :)
