Not sure what I'll do with the throw/cushion when I'm finished, but it'll be good practice for me before I progress to stocking stitch and beyond.
In terms of my M.E., it should work out well, as I've discovered that you can knit while lying down!

Actually started knitting!
I got fed up waiting for The Art of Knitting magazine to arrive, so bought some cheap acrylic yarn from Wilkinsons so I could get started. Amazingly, I can still knit (a little), so I decided to knit some squares and make a large throw (or possibly a small cushion!), since the store only had a small selection in rather bright colours. Here's what I've done so far...
