I have it bad.
Dissatisfaction? Yep.
Discontent from a lack of interest? Bingo.
I have got ennui in spades.
I am going to attempt to reverse this trend with Thing One, pictured above.
Joy? Oh, yes!
Enthusiasm? Absolutely!
I am so excited about this Honey of a cowl that I want it done yesterday and really I have plans to wear this on Sunday!
The knitting clock is ticking!!
Now, on to the Friday Linkage!
Mary Jane Mucklestone is getting top billing today. Are you wondering why? This might just be Thing Two. Remember the frenzy that was the Bang Out a Sweater Phenomenon? Well, meet Sigla. I am looking at colors right now. Who’s in with me for Bang Out a Sweater, Part Deaux?
- Jill Draper Makes Stuff (On sale as a bundle through today only)
- Northwest Passage (Personally, I would knit this with some Elsawool Sportweight Cormo and it would make the yummiest shawl)
- And, speaking of Elsawool (Really, it is the most amazing yarn. If you have not tried it, you should.)
- Season Three of The Sweater with Kathleen Dames kicks off next week
- There is a Gilmore Girls MKAL…just sayin’
- Art Class
- Bridge Walker Mittens (GO PITTSBURGH!!)
- Ingeborg Slippers (Free until 2PM MDT today!)
- Mini-skein cowl (or left over sock yarn, I am thinking!)
- Along those same lines, but not.
- Brandy Alexander ala Thea
- Hats, and more hats.
That is all I have for the week. I hope your weekend is FANTASTIC! Stay warm and I will see you back here on Monday!
SAved by the Honey Cowl! I’ve also found it to be the perfect mojo lifter, I don’t know why but it just works. Excellent linkage as always.Have a great weekend!
Your lovely honey cowl looks like just the thing to cure knitting ennui! May your needles fly like the wind so you can wear it in warmth on Sunday!
Not that I have even FINISHED my BangOutASweater yet, or even started my Blaer, but I am already looking at colors for a Sigla. Your are an inspiration!
And Art Class? I think that baby NEEDS a sweater. <3
And Brandy Alexander?!?!?
And even coupons for some of them!!!
I need a 2 week vacation so I can get all of these started (and finished?) too!
Have fabulous weekend! Keep knitting…
Oh you will be cozy on Sunday!! Great links as always — Sigla is soooooooooooo very tempting!
Your links are certainly tempting. I have Monday and Tuesday off and I’m so excited about it. I might even fit in a little knitting.
That cowl is going to be beautiful and I hope it gets your enthusiasm for knitting back!
I could be tempted by Sigla – but I’d want to knit it in two colors – what do you think about light gray with charcoal sails? It would be great to have a new sweater for Thanksgiving….
That sweater caught my eye as well! Great links Kat and I love knitting the honey cowl! I think I’ve made 2 or 3. Enjoy the weeeknd!
You can’t go wrong with a Honey Cowl! I hope that brings your knitting joy back!
Love the colors!!! Thank you so much for the links, will read them today with a nice cup of tea 🙂 Perfect Sunday!
Trusting you got IT done…hoping to see a pic soon! And that you chased away your ennui…
Cheers~
I know your ennui is short lived 🙂 I can’t wait to see what inspires you and creates a massive cast on event. You know it’s gonna happen 🙂
I just bought Mary Jane’s pattern last night and cannot wait to start. Just found your blog today and signed up for the Thursday write emails. My knitting mojo is good, my writing/blogging mojo is in the dumps.
