WIP Wednesday: Poison Ivy

After spending almost two weeks without knitting on my most recent WIP, I decided to pick it back up over the weekend.

Initially, I wasn't overly excited about the way this sweater was turning out. It didn't look like the picture in the booklet. I had felt this way after I'd washed and blocked my swatch, too. I still don't think it looks like it does in the booklet, but I'm okay with that now.

I'm currently about to split the front and back, and I've made a promise to myself that when I finish the fronts, then I get to start on my annual Christmas sweater. Things like that always get me going when I've stalled out on a project.

What are some things that kick you into gear when you're less than motivated to finish a project? Let me know in the comment section.

As always follow me on Instagram to keep up to date on all my projects.
