WIP Wednesday: Rainbow Brite Socks

Posted on by

While I was doing my post-op recovery after my tonsils I focused on my Rainbow Brite Socks both because it’s #socktober and because they were soothing stockinette.

After the first couple of days rhe first sock looked like this…


Then I had a rough day and took a break. Around day +5 I made some progress again.


Sock one was done with the “tube” and I had a good jump on sock two. Then I had a REALLY bad couple of days around days +8/9. And I took another break.

Finally right before I went back to work I managed to start the heels…


They are done now and I’m hoping to get some photos taken for FO Friday this week.

Happy Knitting!

Back To Work

I’m back to the working grind today. I wouldn’t say I had “fun” while I was off work but it was nice to knit and nap all day in between medicine doses.

I’m not 100% yet and my diet/exercise is still restricted. But I am ready to get out of the house and Jellybean is ready to have his fun Mommy back! I hope to get some posts up this week to catch you up on what I knitted while convalescing. It wasn’t as much as I hoped but I had several days where sleeping was the only answer to the pain. Upside is that I didn’t have any “unintended design features” in my WIPs! (At least that I have found yet)

Happy Knitting!! 

Recovery Humor

My BFF from college sent me a care package for my surgery recovery. She is the best and completely understands what it takes to make me smile!


This coloring book is so ‘colorful’ that I literally can’t show you the inside. But use your imagination and trust that what’s inside is way worse! It may be the narcotics but this book makes me giggle and forget about the pain.

Happy Tuesday!
