I have been informed by a specialist at the local hospital that I have "knitters thumb" which he said normally affected mill workers. Having knitted for over 70 years I thought I had a touch of rheumatism which was interfering with my lace knitting. I have several skeins of one-ply wool and silk which I have tried to donate to a local charity shop but they say "normal" people would not be interested. Does anyone knit this thin any more? I have needles going down beyond the normal sizes, and a German firm used to send me various lengths of circular needles for testing.
