Who knew? Certainly not me. After a weekend happily spent crocheting up the back and part of the right front of the cardigan below, I have since spent the past week in absolute agony.
This backache/muscle lockdown is 100% due, I'm sure, to my bad posture during crochet. Does anyone out there have any tips on how to prevent it? I do want to finish up the cardigan at some point, but since it hurts like a b***ch to lift my arms to type, I'm really not so willing to do it right now.
I guess the only crafting I'm going to be doing for a while is making up rice filled heat pads :(
Yup, I'm always having problems from repetitive injuries and bad posture. Find yourself better seating. The couch is not the best place for me unless I stick a cushion behind my back. Lots of times, I'll sit at the breakfast bar and watch the little tv there, then my back doesn't get outta whack.
ReplyDeleteSo if the couch is bad, the bed is a definite no-no... I think I see a trend developing here...
