Crochet vs Macramé…?

Thank you everyone for your sympathy and advice regarding my elbow.

It is, as you all guessed, a repetitive strain injury all due to crocheting for too long over several days..

I blame “Breaking Bad”

Last week we stayed up late watching breaking bad on tv and I crocheted whilst watching it, for hours…

I now have orders to stop crocheting and I have anti-inflamitary tablets.

Yuk Yuk and Yuk.

However the Dr. did not mention anything about Macramé…..

We did this at school in the 70’s I wonder if it was part of the curriculum ?

So I found my old Book from the 70s! and some Macramé ingredients…

Conferred with my toh for some help; I needed something to secure it with, he suggested a clamp…

 and I was off…

its fast and addictive just like crochet…except it does not hurt my elbow…

It will eventually be a plant holder with a little baby cactus in a jar….

Macramé wins today.

Hurrah I have something to do…

I always appreciate a share!
