Hello everyone, first of all I have to apologize because I’m not sure if I put this post in the right place. I couldn’t find any other introductions so far. So I hope this is ok. My background might be a little different than yours, so I want to tell you a little bit about myself: I’m 52 years old and I’m from Germany (so please excuse my not so fluent expressions sometimes… My English is pretty good, though. So there shouldn’t be any issues coming up). What’s making my situation a little different is that I have severe Cerebral Palsy, I’m sitting in an automatic wheelchair and can only use my left hand to do things. I do have caregivers around 24/7. 2018 I discovered that I can do loom knitting by myself after building some constructions to put the loom on. A few years later my lovely partner Marco (you will hear more from him very soon) bought me the king size Addi. We had to realize pretty quickly that there’s no way for me to use it on my own. So Marco and I decided to addi together. We are still very much at the beginning of our addi journey. Only thing we did so far was this:

What are your knitting goals for this week?

Happy Easter everyone! Yesterday my time was spent trying to see how well I could do short rows on the Addi for socks. They are my love language.💕. After a whole day of some serious frustration, I came to the conclusion that I’m going to have to really work on that more to get short rows for heels and toes that look nice on the Addi. I did however make these with the 22 that uses a drawstring on the toe in the heel. This is a variation on a pattern and I found by Yay for Yarns. Are they perfect? No. And I don’t like socks and worsted weight. So they’re more like house slippers to me. But, I’m going to try this with doubled sock yarn, and see what the results might be. I will keep you posted!

Hope this helps @Lori Norris
