Being in hospital is not fun nor is pain and thankful you had some sticks and yarn to occupy your mind somewhat. It certainly must have for a bit at least because look at what you have knitted - I love it all!<br />Your Loxley turned out seriously fabulous as have both hats! They are both such great designs. I like Botanical with the slip stitches outward, the texture is wonderful it's a shame to hide them..heh. You should definitely take more photos of you wearing your work, your photos are fun! I too love your blog, thanks for finding me because now I have found you .D1funkyknitwithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05864854387571685119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1419716347683484643.post-9280082119509515062012-03-04T11:33:18.960+01:002012-03-04T11:33:18.960+01:00I had my tonsils out when I was 21.

Everyone tells you that you'll be able to have all the ice cream (and jelly when I was a child having them removed)you can eat which sounds great pre-op but no-one tells you it's like swallowing razor blades afterwards!<br />Loving your 'catwalk' pics - my fave is the 'crazy' one.

I had my uvula removed as it used to swell up - it's the little thing that dangles in the back of your throat. I would have thought twice about it if I'd known how painful it was going to be. So, I can relate! Your knitted items are awesome and you look very handsome modeling. Maybe a new career for you!<br />((hugs)), Teresa :-)Teresa Kasnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06228404538876664577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1419716347683484643.post-85206124139539839082012-02-18T02:23:53.649+01:002012-02-18T02:23:53.649+01:00Oh your post takes me back.
