...or as my nephew used to say, "Fab-lee-ous!"
I just noticed a weird mark on my hand only to realize it is a blister or callous formed from the crocheting I did last night! Wow, I've never been so excited about a blister before!
I'll show you why I have it tomorrow.
(Yes, I'm fully aware of my freakazoid tendencies...)
Crochet. . .hard and dangerous work. LOL

I got a blister on my finger when I first started crocheting, but I haven't had once since. These days, I just don't have the time, with three children running around. Back when I started crocheting, I didn't have any children. Life's more fun now!
ReplyDeleteI know what you're talking about - I can get pretty obsessed with a crochet project, especially when it's almost done...I've never received blisters from crocheting, but my forearms break out in red hot blotches so that I have to stop crocheting for a couple of days to calm them down...
ReplyDeleteHaha, I don't even really have feeling on the tip of my fingers anymore from crazy violin-practicing callouses (spelling?)!
ReplyDeleteMachelle--SO true!! Woe is me!
ReplyDeleteNikki--really? I don't think I could get one on my finger with the way I hold my hook... now I'll have to grab a hook and see!
Doris--oh my! That sounds terrible! Is it a blood flow thing? I've never heard of that. You have to stop for a couple of DAYS? That would make me crazy--especially at the end of a project. ;-)
Em--I bet you don't have feeling left! I can't say that I've developed that from piano playing, but I DO think I have oddly formed thumbs because of it. ha!
It could very well be not from the hook but the yarn rubbing against your finger. Just try to hold it differently.
