Man I wish I’d got this written for yesterday. You can never have too much alliteration!
I don’t think I’ve mentioned before that I’m doing a sponsored walking challenge to raise money for Diabetes UK – the aim is to walk one million steps between July 1st and September 30th. This averages out to 10,870 steps per day, which at my pace takes just under two hours.
You wouldn’t think two hours could have that much impact on my day, especially considering I’m still furloughed, but for various reasons it’s really cutting into my crafting time.
So the only logical solution is to knit while I’m walking, isn’t it!
No action shot, as it’s really hard to walk and knit and take a photo at the same time, but here’s a progress shot instead.
Today I managed to knit 6 rows on my socks without walking into any lamp posts/bins/other people – success!

Haha! I walk the track at work during lunch because I walked into traffic one day.

I mean it’s not my fastest knitting (or walking), but I’m definitely getting both done!

I am very impressed – I can barely knit when I’m sat a bit wonky, let alone being on the move!

It wasn’t my fastest knitting, but better than nothing.

I’m very impressed, I’ve never even tried to knit and walk..I’m pretty accident prone so probably best I don’t try. I fell over eating an ice cream and walking last Saturday, but managed to not drop my ice cream off the cone despite being laid flat! For sure I’d have dropped stitches though.

That’s quite an achievement though! Always save the ice cream 😉

I did try crochet first, last year. It’s much easier if I don’t have to watch every single stitch.

I am very impressed you can walk and knit at the same time! And that’s a great cause, too 🙂 Also your sock looks great!
