Slow Knitting
I’m always working on some project or another, and most weeks I talk about what I’m working on Wednesdays as part of Tami’s WIP Wednesday project. You can see other WIP Wednesdays … here.
Between work and some semi-secret knitting I don’t have much knitting to show. But the neck of my sweater grew!
by about an inch 🙂

Progress in 10
I’m always working on some project or another, and most weeks I talk about what I’m working on Wednesdays as part of Tami’s WIP Wednesday project. You can see other WIP Wednesdays … here.
I usually work with tiny yarn on tiny needles, and it usually takes awhile to see much progress. So I think this sweater is a little magical. (This is the sweater that I inherited from a friend who was just over it.)
I can knit for 10 minutes and complete more than part of a round. Especially now that I’m working on the sleeves, and a round takes about a minute.
The plan is to work about 6 inches of black ribbing at the end of each sleeve. Then pick up and knit up one front, around the neck, and down the other front, knit a couple inches to make a band/collar, then add a chunky zipper.
Maybe I’ll finish in time to wear it this year.

1st Shawl of 2013
This week I’m working on a new shawl design (the 1st one of 2013) using Unplanned Peacock Studio’s yarn.
I’m using the 100% superwash merino, in “slate” and “robin’s egg,” and it is beautiful. The yarn is soft, and the colors play beautifully off of each other. I’m using stockinette and lace mesh, combined with a simple ombre stripe sequence to really show off the yarn (and keep the knitting simple.)
I did bind off the red shawl on New Years, and I’m hoping to block it soon. Maybe it’ll be my FO this Friday? But that might be pushing it.
