It’s Australia Day. Otherwise known in our house as Lamington Day!<\/p>\n

Lamington<\/a>! For those of you not local, it’s a sponge cake, rolled in chocolate sauce then smothered in coconut. What’s not to love?<\/p>\n

And I sewed a bunch today. I’ve been easing up on the knitting. The other big impact on my knitting last year was an extreme knitting injury. Well, I don’t know that for sure, but no one has really been able to tell me what caused it. I kept having pain in my right shoulder, but it was intermittent at first, and I thought I was sleeping on it weirdly or some such. Then bursitis was tossed around for awhile, until an ultrasound and MRI found a torn tendon. Ouch! I’ve been having cortisone and physiotherapy, and things were doing better, but it’s been a bit sore again lately. I’m wondering if it’s my knitting, particularly as I’m working with All Seasons Cotton. It’s a blend, but I’ve never been a huge fan of cotton and I think it could be the yarn.<\/p>\n

Or maybe not. <\/p>\n

Here it is so far, though!<\/p>\n

Another Kim Hargreaves, I’m such a Kim tragic. It’s Raquel, from Honey<\/a>. Worked in one piece, as you can see. And I think it’d be a pretty quick knit if I wans’t knitting do pathetically slowly!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
