Carol said on her blog:
The postman delivered the miniature knitting kit that I ordered a few days ago from Buttercup Miniatures. I have not tried miniature knitting before so I have no idea how I will get on with it. I have a pattern for knitting miniature Quaker Pin Balls so I will probably give these a go at some point but I will start with knitting up the Victorian Coverlet as per the kit. Now that my hands are relatively pain free, I have decided to try both knitting and crocheting again.

A quick snap of my miniature knitting with a US25c coin for scale. It’s actually easier to do than I thought it would be and, so far, I have only had a little trouble with pain and stiffness in my right index finger otherwise my hands have been fine.
