Been ill

Yesterday was horrible. I woke up feeling a bit sick (and knowing I defnitely wasn't pregnant). I also felt very tired. The rest of the day, I stayed in bed. I didn't even do any knitting, now you know I really was feeling rough. I slept on and off most of the day, apart from watching a couple of episodes of spooks, and then starting 24 season 8. I didn't even eat anything until the evening. Bet I still put on 2lb knowing the way my body works!!

Today I feel much better. I have still had a quiet day, but have purchased some amazing knitting patterns. One site I love is http://www.yarnaddict.co.uk/ she sells lovely yarn, but also I bought a couple of her patterns via Ravelry. Then I also bought one from http://www.brooklyntweed.net/ I bought the Romney Kerchief pattern, and of course, I had to cast on straight away for it. I have had to frog it twice, but now I am writing down each row as I do it, so I don't lose my place. I am not using the right yarn for it, but I am willing to risk it, I can always unravel it all. I had to do a provisional cast on for the first time, thank goodness for http://www.youtube.com/ it makes knitting life so much easier. Got to go, cake timer is going off - I have been baking too, home made rolls, home made currant bread, and now big fairy cakes for tea. Glad I am still off my appetite a bit.

  1. It always disappoints me that when I am ill I can't even do gentle things like knitting or reading but I suppose it's natures way of slowing us down till we are well again. Which happily you are, glad you are feeling better.
