I've heard some others who were unhappy with Mosaic. But, it's like that with every yarn. Some people love it, others don't. That's why we have so many wonderful choices of yarn, and so many different yarn companies!  |

I have cervical spine arthritis and pinched nerves in my lumbar spine. I don't notice knitting makes a difference either way. You may have to pace yourself to learn, but once you relax you may be fine.
This is basically a hand knitting forum, but there are a few who loom knit as well. Have fun tonight.

I just found the forums today and haven't thoroughly looked around, but does anyone else use looms or is everyone needles only? I'm starting with just a set of Knifty Knitter looms, but am enjoying it enough to start looking around at board looms for a tighter stitch and larger projects. I want to learn needles as well, but I've been following a lady on YouTube who also has arthritis and she said she can't use the needles as much as the looms anymore because it bothers her cervical spine. I have issues in my cervical and lumbar spine as well as hands and wrists. And on good days when the pain is managed well I'm usually painting.....

You were probably like, "She never wins anything." 
Just kidding. 
What fun and so appropriate given my love for technology. I'll be able to use it to show my girls at school some of those videos when we knit during lunch!

I hope this works! Here's a picture of my Party Lace scarf. I have about twice as much done now. The picture does not do the yarn justice at all. It's a beautiful pale gold with tiny gold sequins all over.  |
