Why I hate blocking
Aug. 23rd, 2008 12:08 amI hate blocking. Hate it so much that although I finished knitting Hanami last summer, it's been languishing unblocked ever since. I finished the knitting for Eerie tonight, and decided it was finally time to block.
Rosa's at Daddy's until Sunday, so I could use her beds. Climbed up on the top bunk and started stretching Hanami...when I finished, I climbed down via the dresser. And when jumping off the dresser, my left-foot baby toe got caught on the edge. Shouts of pain, worse with each step. I've got a big swollen purple spot at the base of my toe. I put ice on it, but it is only hurting more. I can't wait to see what it looks like in the morning. Not.
Nonetheless, I persisted and blocked the shirt pieces on the lower bunk. Now I have a sore back from all the bending, to go with my very ouchy toe.
