For at least 4–5 years...

I hadn’t knitted any more socks—I just couldn’t do it anymore. Ever since my husband gave me that massage gun, I’ve been massaging my wrists and arms every evening, and since then I haven’t had any more problems with cramps when using thin knitting needles, so I bought some sock yarn and started knitting my own socks again. Okay, I’m not as fast as I was a few years ago, but honestly, I couldn’t care less—the important thing is that I can do it again, no matter how long it takes me to finish a pair of socks. The first of the three pairs I want to knit for myself is finished :-)

Love, Inge

Inge, that’s great news. The journey is the destination… when it’s done, it’s done. It doesn’t matter how long it takes.

You’ve picked out a lovely color gradient.

The color choice is great, Inge. I really like them, and I’d love to put them on right away.

Great socks! And it’s awesome that it’s working out again! We’re not on an assembly line here, after all—it doesn’t matter how long it takes.

Inge, you have such a sweet husband! It’s just great that he gave you a tool that’s actually helpful. Now you can use your hands to create even more beautiful things than just sewing.

I’m so happy for you!

So, the first pair of socks is finished :-)

Love, Inge

Wow, you’re fast, Inge! I can hardly believe it. Considering you haven’t knitted socks for 4 to 5 years, you’ve really gotten back into it quickly. And both look exactly the same, which I don’t always manage to do.

It’s great that your husband bought you that electrical device and that you’re actually using it. I have something like that, too. It’s good for blood circulation and stimulates the nerve cells deeper in the tissue. It really helped me back when I broke my wrist. Give your husband a big shout-out from all of us! We think it’s great that he supports you so much.

Best wishes, Ina
