Some time ago, I got myself a Phildar book on how to knit and crochet stuffed animals. I knitted a couple of teddy bears first, one looking nicer than the other. But then I somehow ended up with a muscle inflamation. Since it was a back muscle, I had trouble sitting up all the time, so it got kind of hard to hold the knitting needles. I didn’t like just lying there, soI decided to pick up a crochet hook. With the help of Debbie Stoller’s Happy Hooker and the Phildar book I crocheted myself a pink monkey.
I don’t know what you guys think, but it certainly made me feel better. Ever since, it’s on top of the radio, smiling at everyone passing by. Maybe even a little more when you’re singing along. And I just can’t help smiling back at it.
