Mid Winter Doldrums

Hello!

We did get down to see Ruby today, but it was pretty late. So no grand stories or photos!!

Her foot is not being kind to her – rather swollen. She does admit that it has done a lot of work in its nearly 100 years of her ‘not being very kind to them’ 🙂

We chatted about knitting and crochet as I took my latest project along for her to check out – A shawl

Not a bikini bottom in case you were wondering

Someone put a pattern on facebook and I found link to a youtube video that was so clear at explaining this!

It will eventually be a shawl

Ruby was impressed with my efforts 🙂 Yay!

We chatted a while & my nurse checked out her foot and has made some suggestions. We don’t like to see Ruby slowed up!!

Have a great day!

Cheers

  1. Awe, poor Ruby, I know she hates not being able to go like she wants to due to the foot. I am sending he well wishes from the states. Love your shawl, it’s going to be beautiful!

  2. Please let Ruby know that we are wishing her well regarding her foot and hope she is back up to snuff soon. (I have found that nurses sometimes are a wee bit stubborn about being good patients…..) Your crocheting is gorgeous!

    1. I sure will!! Thank-you!! And yes – she doesn’t like being the patient but she is trying to be sensible! 🙂
      Thanks re crochet… I am really glad of those hobbies during winter!
