Ok so at this point I've had two people roll up to me in manual wheelchairs, well, one of them was somebody pushing somebody who was nonverbal at the time, but it still counts. They asked me why I had zip ties around my tires.

It's winter where I'm living and we have really bad snow. And the snow plow people are really bad at their jobs probably because there aren't snow plow people who clean sidewalks. As a solution I got to thinking about how I could increase the traction on my wheels. And the most redneck thing I could think of was taking a bunch of zip ties and tying them around my wheels. They last surprisingly long, and work surprisingly well. It's basically the same premise as chains for your tires during the winter.

I chose to space them out pretty evenly so there's about one for every spoke. You could probably do more or less depending on how many you want and how much traction you get but I wouldn't go more than three per spoke. I realize that it's a bit later in the winter, and I probably should have made a post about this sooner, but I came up with it about a week ago. So please share this, even if you're not disabled, because there are tons of people I know who are stuck in their houses because they can't get around in the snow. A pack of zip ties costs about $5, which compared to $200 knobby snow tires is a big save, and if you want to invest you could get colored zip ties.

Right I know I'm forgetfull so here us another couple rows to appease the gods or something. I've had to press pause on this blanket to work on something else for another friends wedding. Maybe I'll post it. I don't know.

Huzzah we have the first row done!

I'm stitching this blanket with an orange yarn that Heather absolutely loved but just didn't work in the blanket. She loves it so much that I went you know what sure let's use this and if i have a spot where it peaks up at the top well to be it it will be a nice bit of fun.

So I've had a bit of a wild half year. I quit my old job because of the way they handled my car accident. I was fortunately uninjured. I started a new job and lost myself to the void of stress. I need something to tie me to the mortal plane of existence so I'm starting another temperature blanket for my best friend. Its two blankets in one. First two circles in the square are for Lanark where she was born and the outer two rounds are Brisbane where she now lives.
