Work-in-progress Wednesday - #14

I apologize for being so absent lately, graduate school has been challenging and very time-consuming.  But I've been finding little bits of time to work on my projects.

I also have some very photogenic projects right now too!

My very own sweater design is going pretty well, I've been trying it on as I go to ensure I have a good fit.  As always I am thoroughly enjoying the process of working with Ultra Alpaca, I could knit with it ages and never get tired of it!


Next is my Azzu's Shawl, which I'm about halfway through with.  I've started to like the yarn at little bit more as I knit with it more, but I still don't love it. 


That's about it for now!  Right now I've been living vicariously through all of your beautiful projects!  Keep up the wonderful work, you talented people!

I hope that you are all having a great Wednesday and I hope that you also join in for WIP Wednesday with Tami's Amis.

  1. I completely understand ... you'd think after teaching at a university for nearly five years, I'd be used to the start of the semester but no ... every single fall the start of the semester kicks my butt! I am just starting to be making progress on my projects again!

  6. photogenic wips indeed!
    i might have school this fall, so it's something to both anctipate and dread--school is mostly fun stuff, but i'll lose beautiful knitting time D:
    there's always a way for it to balance out, i suppose.

  9. I love the colors of your shawl's yarn, too. Is it the color or the yarn, itself, that you don't like?

  10. I love both of the projects you have started, I'm amazed at how much you have done on both considering you are studying your masters!

  12. You always create such wonderful things with such beautiful yarn. I'd love to just have a bit of what lives in your stash!! Yesterday one of the books you recommended (Hand Dyeing) arrived at the library for me. I can't wait to spend some time with it!
    Keep up the great work - and enjoy school (as much as possible!)
