Sometimes blogging is so hard

Yes, sometimes it is.  I was in Egypt in the first 2 weeks of November and that should explain a part of my absence.  Then the situation in Egypt took a wrong turn and when I am stressed,  I just can’t make stuff.  My hands and my heart refuse to cooperate with what my head tells them to do.  I feel the same way about blogging.  I sat down dozens of times and just stared at the New Post page as if it were written in some alien language.  The words just would not come out.  But right now I am forcing myself to get back on track. My heart will always be in Egypt but since the situation seems like it might drag on for some time, I might as well get myself sorted out.

When I was there I managed to knit another November Hat

I also took lots of pictures

I got some yarn (this is just a sneak peak)

But ever since I got back I have been swatching, frogging, casting on, frogging again and so on.

I did get a knitting basket, finally.

And I think I just might have started something I like.

And taking more pictures.

      Thanks Andrea, I finally finished it but not happy with it, must make another one (or maybe it is just an excuse to buy more yarn :-)))
