Broken Bones, and Downton Abbey

Current afghan I'm working on for Bridge and Beyond.  Called Learning Logs.  Started it some time ago to learn how to use multiple colors/stands at the same time.  This was through a lesson I purchased on Crafty's.  The lessons were flawed, as was the pattern and through lots of complaints it was removed from Crafty's, along with the instructor.  However, I did actually learn how to slip stitch and use multiple colors.The pattern was 6 large blocks all with these different patterns and colors.  FAR too busy, I think for one afghan.  So, am adding to it in solids with some texture at the moment.  I may decide to add some additional color with stripes as it's grows; but will try to keep the center the busy part.
You see me wearing the boot in the afghan picture.........here's the reason why.  Fractured 5th Metatarsal Bone on Right Foot.  
Watching this, courtesy of a friend has helped pass the time while I sit with foot elevated.  Never had the chance to watch it when it was on, so have been enjoying her collection of the entire series.

Am so very tired of winter.  We've been wetter and colder than normal.  How are things for you all?

  1. Love your aghan. I am so very sorry to hear about your foot. How did you do it?
    Our summer has been looooong. And dry. And hot. And Autumn is following suit. The nights are cooler though which is a welcome relief.

  3. Winter sure does seem to be dragging on indeed. Ouch to the foot, hopefully it heals fast. We sometimes don't realize how much we use something until its gone...or has to be rested.

    1. Right you are about not realizing how much you need or use something. The whole balancing thing has been a problem for me. After I heal, will need to focus on some good balancing exercises. Thanks for the visit.

  4. Oh Bother my friend :( Hoping you heal fast, the upside if there is one, that while you're on the mend the weather here in Ohio is well....you know. By the time it gets squared away you'll be well on your way mended. Move the hook and watch "Downtown" as I call it.
