Ouchy....sorry that you cut your finger! I have cut my fingers on cans many times but the worst thing I did was slammed my middle finger in the dish washer door almost cut the tip of my finger off at the joint. The bone cracked and had stitches. That finger was in a cast for 6 weeks. What I did so I could do my sewing was I taped my last 3 fingers together then tucked them in the palm of my hand and used my thumb and index finger and was able to still sew.
