Ugh I love the yorkshire rose square so much 💙😭

I mean this sounds like a more environmentally friendly/space conscious option, tbh 🤷‍♂️

Like we may choose to do something that hurts because we may never get to do it again. Or we may choose not to tough through something because we need to preserve energy for something else. Nothing is ever simple.

I hope you are able to find some joy in the holiday proceedings, you deserve it 💙

I think this is a thing people don't understand about chronic illness... they'll either say "well if it hurts just don't do it" or "just tough it out" but either way they don't realize that we have to weigh not only the short term but long term implications....

Yeah there's definitely something with this specific project that I'm doing differently than others that's doing it. For now I'm taking a break from it after some rest to work on other things. Monday will be no crochet day for a while. Hoping after a bit I can try it again and do better 🤞🙏

Hopefully I'll figure out what I'm doing that's hurting so much and find more sustainable practices. I am instituting a Monday No Crochet day to give my wrist a rest, hoping that will help going forward 🙏 🤞

I have not yet tried knitting... though it's on my list. Usually if I keep a support glove on it's not too bad, I think in doing something weird with the DCs on this raccoon scarf I'm working on... took a day off and braced it, then worked on a different project today and was fine... 🤷‍♂️

So sorry, friend. Bodies are so difficult. How can they both be the only way we can do things and what most keeps us from being able to do things? 💙🫂💔😔
