an official hiatus
I can’t tell you how sad I am do to this but it has become apparent that it is time to take an official break from my knitting blog because there won’t be much (any) knitting to talk about. I feel like I have my own personal army of medical specialists (an immunologist, cardiologist, neurologist, obstetrician and a wonderful, wonderful midwife) and the current opinion seems to be that not only am I unlikely to feel better this pregnancy, I will get worse. Baby is doing wonderfully so far and what is wrong with me is not dangerous and will likely self resolve come July (or sometime relatively soon after) but in the meantime I am debilitatingly exhausted and will be very lucky to finish the one baby project I have started - the Stonington Shetland Shawl. I would rather use what little energy I have to knit than to try to take pictures of my snail’s pace progress and post about it.
Knitting and knitting bloggers got me through the year and a half leading up to this pregnancy. I never even imagined that pregnancy would stop me knitting and make me too tired to miss it. But I will miss all of you. Thankyou so much for your interest in my knitting and all the kindness and support you have shown me.
I would like to say that I will be reading all of your blogs in the meantime, but I am not even managing to do that - there are hundreds and hundreds of unread posts in my bloglines…. All I can say is that I will post about any FOs I do manage to complete and hopefully one day I will get back on top of all the blogs I am subscribed to.
Happy Knitting everyone!
