I think I'm also suffering from a little knitting burnout since the push to get the fair stuff done. It was fun, and I was so pleased to get all those ribbons, but I think I pushed myself a little bit too much. That, coupled with the scorching weather we've got right now... there's just no drive to pick up the needles.
The weatherman says we'll be back to seasonal temps by the end of the week, so hopefully that will be a little more inspiring. I really hope so - cardigan season is around the corner and I've got two beauties that need finishing!

Oh no .....Burton was a very bad kitten!!!! Glad you got back on track. The Cascading Leaves socks look great.
These socks are lovely!
Knitting cycles with highs and lows like most things in our lives;
you will find your knitting gear again after a rest!
And since there are still only 24 hours in a day, you will have to remember
you are sharing that amount of time with a lot more interests now, too,
not to mention more furbabies! It's all good.
Same here and I don't have the fair excuse. It's the weather. Too hot. Too humid. Ugh. What happened to fall?
My knitting production is WAY down, but after this push to make 22 bags by Christmas I should be back to the needles. Love those socks!
Ebb and flow; we all have great passion, then lassitude!
I love your Cascating Leaves socks!
I always have a hard time knitting in the summer. Hot weather and wool and sweaty hands - no fun at all! I'm hoping it cools off soon so I can get back to my shawls.
In the meantime, socks look like a really good interim knit. I should follow your lead!
You did so much for the fair that I certainly understand if you're burnt out. This weather is something else too! Swimming weather, not knitting weather!
Very pretty! This hot weather in September is nasty. Even my needles feel sticky.
Sleeping in is ALWAYS a good idea. You won so many blue ribbons, you deserved some extra sleep. I was really impressed lady!
