Does anyone here have any tips for making cross stitching easier on hand joints?

I have very painful joints and expect to get formally diagnosed with arthritis tomorrow. I love cross stitching, but my god does it make my hands hurt. I also work in IT, so my hands are in use all day for my job. I want to be able to craft after work to relax, but my hands just hurt and cramp immediately when I try to work on a...

@KittenBiscuits @LaunchesKayaks I use my compression gloves all the time while stitching. They help reduce fatigue and swelling...and they make my hands look fancier while I'm working! 😉

Okay...so...TECHNICALLY this was finished while it was still MY Friday, so I'm posting it today. is cross stitched on the front panel.

Finally finished on the #CrossStitch portion of the two copies of #PraiseHim #PrayerCloth! WHOO HOO!!! Now the easy part-- #CrossQuilting! As you can see, I already started around the central circle on the Sun, so the backs aren't very impressive yet. When I'm finished, I'll be correcting the pattern, posting it to Ko-Fi (emailing an updated, CORRECTED copy to those with the unproofed version), and then on to much a much less complicated project! #ThankGod for #LightAtTheEndOfTheTunnel! 😄🥳🎉🥳🎉

How I use a Trolley Needle as a Laying Tool while Railroading stitches in Cross Stitch

@Fermion Yes. A is a type of , though the manufacturer says it can be used for other purposes too. In , a laying tool is used to make sure stitches lay flat. I use mine to help me catch knots starting to form as I'm stitches so the don't get unmanageable. I also feel that they look much nicer combining the Railroading with the use of the trolley needle.
