Lockdown madness

I am definitely going a bit bonkers now as I decided it was a good idea to crochet a mandala inspired by my powerhoop instrument of torture.

I do love a good bit of granny stitch so may have to repeat this but with far more sensible colours next time, not just to match powerhoop segments.

I wonder whether by the time we are out of lockdown I will have become immune to the bruising effect of the hoop. I have now worked out that tense stomach muscles definitely help. I had thought all my extra insulation around the waist would lessen the effect but it turns out it can give a good thwack through the flab.
