Suturing

At last! I’ve been practicing knots for months and we finally get to suture some tissue: pigs feet.

Pig skin is tough—really tough. It took a lot of work to get the needle through to close up a laceration. After a few stitches, the needle was dull and it became a lot more difficult. After about 20 stitches, my technique was starting to look better. Still, I need to keep practicing.
