Keeping Busy… Sort ofby Angie

I have been getting a little bit of cabin fever lately, but spending three hours at church on Sunday really did me in, so I know I’m not ready to be up and about yet.

Today, I decided to pull out my crochet hooks and yarn, which have been gathering dust for over a year.  I have about 2 feet of a leper bandage that I started many moons ago, so I set to work on that.  Unfortunately, I couldn’t exactly remember how to do the loops and knots, so I would try it one way for about 1 1/2 rows, then pull out 2 rows and start over trying it slightly differently.

I figured out a pattern that my fingers seem to recognize, but after half a dozen different tries, my bandage was shorter than when I started, and it still didn’t look quite right.  Does it really matter?  It probably wouldn’t, except that there is now a distinctly visible line between my inch of the new “pattern” and the rest.

I finally looked it up on youtube, and apparently I’m doing it right now… So, who knows what I was doing before.  Sheesh.
