I know. It sounds whiny. But it happens from time to time in my knitting world. In fact, about once a year, I lose my knitting mojo. At the end of the summer I had whittled my list down to less than five WIPs and UFOs. Somehow this queue grew and grew over the past few months and is currently sitting at twelve and I have little-to-no desire to knit any of them. Sigh. Here's a look at the queue.
1. Purple Stockinette Socks - unlabeled yarn which was a gift. Anyone have any idea what it is?
2. Owl Hat #4
3. Let It Snowmen 2013 - these just need the eyes and bells and final sewing. They are *almost* done.
4. A Hug from Marienne blanket - in black, white and gray
6. A Hug from Marienne - pinks and orange
7. Lindaly's Blanket
8. The Sampler Blanket in forest green.
9. Penguin Popper ornaments
10. Breckenridge - a sweater for moi???
11. Cabled Raglan Cardigan for Secundogeniture... snoozing since for-evah!
12. The Floral Jacket - which you remember I picked up in late July deteremined to finish it only to discover a few attacks by winged evil critters. I didn't have the courage to work on it and it went back into hiding.
So there you have it. I've got twelve pretty amazing, interesting projects of all types - socks, epic, quick and easy to challenging. And I'm bored? What's up with that? Maybe I should stop playing that stupid solitaire on my phone and instead focus my time and energy into finishing up these projects. I don't know which will be first. I know most of you want to see the Floral Jacket... but I'm just not sure I have the energy to fix what the moths attacked. I'll probably start with one of the quick and easy projects for some instant gratification. You know how I love instant gratification. So I'm off to find my knitting mojo. Wish me luck.
I'm guessing Opal for the purple socks. Maybe?

Find some trashy TV series on DVD and finish the blankets that just need seaming. And have some wine.
BTW, I'm working on a Hug blanket and I don't know if I'm going to make the march 31st deadline. It's going to be 90 here on Friday and the sprinklers need someone to run through them.
