At least I can mope around at home with Covid in my newly finished sweater. It has a little lid for my watch because I might need a watch again sometime in the future 🙃

Oh no, covid solidarity 😭 I hope you're well on the way to recovery at this point.

Amazing sweater! The colour, the fit, the watch flap, perfection!

@thegiddystitcher awww Covid solidarity right back! I feel fine, just so tired all the time and screens give me a headache. Not practical if you’re a software engineer… hope you’re feeling better too.

I was unnerved by this sweater because there’s so much shaping in the yoke and I more or less guessed at it. It came out better than I ever hoped for 🥰

Ugh that's the most frustrating part isn't it, not being able to do basic normal things. I couldn't even knit for most of this last week!

Definitely on the mend now though, but same with the tiredness. They were really not kidding about the tiredness...

@thegiddystitcher yes I had a knitless week as well. That’s how my manager knew it was serieus 😂
