What to knit?

Some merino/alpaca/angora/bamboo that I'm spinning.


Summer was wonderful. I did lots of spinning, and made plans for beautiful things to knit when the weather turned cooler.


Well, it's certainly cooler here. But I'm feeling absolutely no urge to knit.

Perhaps I should rephrase that. I want to knit! I love all the things that are in my queue, and I certanly need some new mittens.

But nothing is calling out to me.


I wonder if maybe having a queue is not a good idea for me. In having this list, these plans, it's like I've already knit the garment in that the planning and waiting is over.


Maybe I need to go back into the stash and pull out something and just knit it, for the process.

I hope my energy for the planned projects returns soon, the holidays approach!
