Re: Is anyone out there a knitter?

[Guest guest]

I'm a knitter I'm a knitter! Hi Margery, are you?

yes the knitting bee here has been busy preparing all manner of

headgear for my pending bald times. I have long hair so we're all

getting as ready as possible for you know, a shock.

Do you think you will knit a breast? I have seen these, they can get

pretty elegant.

Cheers and thanks for the lift,

e

Hi, e -

I used to knit a lot, but not so much now I'm doing patchwork and quilting.

I taught both my daughters to knit when they were children, and the older

one (32 now) is getting back into it - getting a lot of enjoyment.

I might knit a breast, but my idea is more fun than elegant - I thought of a

little face peeping over the top of my bra ... <G>

A friend knitted me a chemo cap in bright pink - if you look in this group's

photos section, under Margery's pictures, you'll see it there.

http://www.headhuggers.org/patterns/kpatt10.htm

and

http://www.berroco.com/exclusives/chemo_cap-scarf.html

have patterns for the chemo caps.

Yes, losing your hair will be a big change when you've had long hair. But

it will come back (look at my pictures) and anyway if that's what it takes

to beat this nasty cancer then that's what we will put up with. We can beat

it - it's just that the process is not what you'd call fun ... we must make

what fun we can <G>.

Hugs,

Margery.

Darn! (pun intended) I only crochet, and then only occasionally.

Sure glad we do NOT have an internet filter. ;-)

Margery - thanks for the smile I am a knitter, and knit for a

non-profit yarn shop in town (I have for the last 2 years) I can't

imagine trying to explain what " those pink balls are " if someone

asked me what I was working on. hmmmmmmmmm Smiles!

one of my dear pals came up with a lovely crocheted breast 'totem'

during my biopsy time. she added picotee around the base and glass and

pewter hearts inside and out. it isn't the sort one would necessarily

wear but close to it. it's really a beautiful thing.

anyway it proudly sits on the dashboard of my car. it looks exactly

like what it is, if you know. if you don't, it looks like a little

nepalese cap. and i am frequently complimented on the temple in my

car. everyone who knows of course, calls it the temple of the healthy

boobies.

so you could say you are knitting temples!

i will try to post a photo sometime.

the friend btw, is making another one for a prize at a Curves

observance of BC month coming up.

oh the knitting bee!

does help take the mind off all this yuck.

tired but sincere hugs all around
