I was having some problems and learned a little trick. If you use the connected knitting needles instead of the two individual knitting needles it goes easier on your wrists. That way the weight of whatever project you're working on isn't on your wrists but is left on the needles. Hope that helps. And if you don't know what I'm talking about I'll be glad to p.m. you.

This is helpful! As long as I know there are ways to mitigate it, I'm willing to experiment.
And who am I kidding? I'm crazy for even wanting to learn a new hobby at this point because I barely have time to sleep as it is but knitting looks fun.
PLUS, I like doing something where there is an end result that I can hold
