long time

I have not knitted quite long time, until yesterday.
I actually casted on a sock of CookieA, and yesterday I divided it in three dpns and started.
It is the project I have brought to France, and didn't start.

I have now no photos, just trying keep here active a very bit.

Yes, I am trying. Not yet found my mojo.

PS: For eca's comment, I reply as follows:

1)the beautiful sock pattern from Mary is "Go with the flow Socks" from the "Favorite Socks" book from Interweave.

2)The sweater I sent to Shobhana is NOT KNITTED by me, it is ready-made cabled sweater from Pringle of Scotland 2006 winter collection.
However, she looks definitely got very resembled pattern. See her entry, on September 13.

The socks are the best handknitted sock which I posess ever....I cannot find the words to express my thanks for her, YET I am SO LATE to show them here....
I am so sorry for it, MaryC, my precious pal.
The fabulous bag is her gift for being late to ship them just a very bit...oh she is so generous and kind. Actually I am crazy about the bag and the very thing gives me the urge to go to LYS just to show it to friends.

I have to confess here, that I have not been at my LYS since MAY.

Yes. It's true. I am not faithful. I don't know actually what is going on....

After vacation, I found again my knitting mogo. But just after that, I lost it again and since I have not touched my WIP for around 3 weeks.
Now I've got kind of impression that my knitting is slowly collapsed, the access and uodating to this blog is becoming more and more difficult to me. Even if I look into new Rowan book, I've not gotten any cue for coming abundant season.
I am...experiencing knitting emptiness now.

Maybe I have too much stress around me recently, maybe it will be going well after DS first's returning back to school. I hope. I wish.
I pray.

I am sorry for not being able to keep interesting here. I am really sorry. I will try. But I need time a bit.

I show you my second project which I have knitted during summer vacation:

This is a small bag, the size of a CD case. Knitted by Phildar's swede-like yarn, with "Shifting Sand" pattern from Grumperina in front, with 4-stitches i-code. It is a tiny vacation project for fun.
I made it without much thought, and I put a beautiful linen crochetted flower from Minako, of Little Stitches.

I know I am so lucky and blessed with fabulous knitting friends. Recently I have received another oh-so-incredible gift from another truly talented knitter/designer. I will report on next post.
