I should have blogged long before now. In fact, I had every intention of publishing a hat pattern in two different yarn weights, going as far as taking the hats on a late-winter get-away for some scenic photo ops.

But life took a painful turn five days after the trip. It was the first nice day of the year so DH and I went for a bike ride. I went over my handlebars and my bike landed on me as I tried to dodge a lady’s dog, not under control and on a retractable leash. As I was on the ground, the lady and her friends slipped away (heaven forbid people take responsibility grr…) Broken ribs and nose, ambulance ride, X-rays, MRIs, surgery to replace my shattered left shoulder, missed a month of work. Worst of all, no KNITTING!

Now, three months on, I’m on the mend, faithfully doing my PT, and slowly knitting. Here’s a little something I just finished for a new special someone who was born recently!

This sweet little sweater is almost done (button and blocking to go). It is called Simply The Best Cardigan For Babies + Toddlers. I added the little I-cord decoration because flowers are sweet!

Has your knitting life ever been interrupted? If so, how did you get back on track?
