You poor thing, I understand as I used to love cross stitch too and sewing. Oh my how I miss sewing! I have tried but my hands just don't have the dexterity anymore. Horrible disease, I hate it.

Hope you succeed with your knitting, having a hobby is important I think and I love the same nose of achievement when I do actually manage to do something with my hands :-)

All the best to you,

JoJo xx

*sense of achievement! Goodness knows where 'same nose' came from! Ha ha

Hi anbuma, oh I love x stitching and I am lucky I can still do it, please let me know what you want to sell, I have a very painfull shoulder at the moment, I was doing a lot of knitting yesterday for Christmas so maybe I did too much, oh how I hate this disease !!!

Please message me and hope the knitting goes ok, but don't overdo it. xx

I have had some odd wool lying about for years and was given a load of odd wool too so decided to make some baby stuff for the hospital baby unit.knitting is ok as can put it down and pick it up again whenever but cant really do that with x stitch as it is time consuming. just knitted some baby dungarees and mitts ,booties and hats.
