Sweater for my friend’s granddaughter

Very pretty, I’m sure she’ll love it. Hope you feel better soon.

So sweet, she'll look lovely! Have you a heated pad, bit like a tiny electric blanket? A bit of warmth may help

That's a sweet little jumper, reminds me of the ones I used to knit for my DD and DGD 🙂

Sciatic is horrible, hope you feel better soon. Do you have any exercises to do?

Thank you.

I keep a hot water bottle handy when I am sat down. I’ve seen the dr twice and also the physio twice. Loads of exercises to do twice per day, which I do. It’s nearly 10 weeks since it started. Also have to go to hospital next Monday for a hysterectomy. Oh, it’s all going on here! X

It's a lovely jumper. Best wishes for you for next week, and for your sciatica. Just as well knitting keeps you sane - it does the same for me, so I can understand! 🧶

Purplepixie I have an electric heating pad I had it from Amazon it helped with my sciatica. It has 6 heat setting and 4 timers. When the pain was very bad in my bottom sitting on the pad at the highest setting for 2 hours was bliss . It's flexible so can be wrapped round parts of the body.

Your jumper is beautiful as all your knitting is .

That's very sweet, well done!

It’s a really lovely jumper, Purplepixie, and thank you for the blanket info.

Gorgeous! I'm sure she'll love it and enjoy wearing it.

That is pretty purplepixie hope you feel better soon.

Another gem! It’s lovely.

Good luck on Monday

Oh beautiful, I envy you your skills.

Fabulous - you are so gifted !
What stitch did you use ?
A sciatica fix with your physiotherapist 's full approval .
Lie on floor after a nice long warm bath and bring your knees up as far as you can , grasp them and rock gently .
It will release the tension .
I think that your sciatica must be aggravated by your uterus pressing on your sciatic nerve .
I hope that the surgery goes well .
Get Well soon .

I love using up leftover wool and knitting little jumpers for the grandkids. They are all getting a bit big now, sadly. I do socks as well, they’re fun and quick.

Wow the socks are lovely nanna8.

I’ve tried to knit socks but mine never seem to stay up. I tried putting some elastic in the tops and I just didn’t like them. Back to other knitting.

Thanks Purplepixie - mostly I do them for little ones because they are a bit bulky, great for bed socks though. I got a pattern from the Bendigo wool mill shop, it seems to work better than some.

My friend knits socks and gave me a lovely book of sock knitting patterns but I've never attempted it.

Suddenly the grandchildren reach the age when only sportswear will do. I miss knitting little jumpers and cardigans.

Cute little jumper. Reminds me of pistachio ice cream colours.

I could do with a pair of those woollen- my feet are the coldest part of my body 😫

Woollen socks

My granddaughter gave up on finishing her attempt at socks but it's perfect for my dashcam.

I lost its case, it must have fell out of the car door along with my favourite red leather gloves!

Wishes I love the colours and a great way to use it.

That's lovely xx hope all goes well and clears up the sciatica it's horrible isn't it xx
