Definitely listen to your body. For me, I find if I have different projects with different movements it helps to address the fatigue. But our bodies know best and if it’s time to stop for the day, so be it 😊 We are in charge of our own process ❀️❀️

It’s the Tunisian lattice stitch. Really simple but I think the effect makes it look intricate
