Knitting Impaired October 9, 2014

Here it is – my gorgeous blue splint which I am supposed to wear 24/7 for 6 weeks. The goal is to correct the little finger on my right hand. That finger insists on pointing down and I don’t have the strength in my knuckle to straighten it. Rather annoying but not painful. By attaching the little finger to the ring finger and keeping it there for 6 weeks I hope the tendon in the knuckle will shift into the right place. Now I have to figure out what I can and cannot do with this arrangement. I’m pretty certain I won’t be able to knit, and typing is rather slow.
