Dissertation progress report. Can I say arrrrrggghhhh? Actually, it’s moving along, it’s just not finished. Which is bad. Had a discussion with my advisor today. It started like this:
Him: How’ve you been doing?
Me: (with bravado) Okay; getting a lot of work done.
Him: Is any of it on your dissertation?
Okay, it could it have gone so much worse, and the conversation was productive. Then I had to go back and re-write the intro to Chapter 5, and re-insert a section that I had experimentally removed. A lot of re-ing involved these days. Sigh.
Oh, here’s my progress on the top down raglan. The color is off–nighttime photo–but I’m pleased with how it’s shaping up. Love, love, love top down sweaters. Last week, I showed it off to a friend at a cafe. We both exclaimed, “It looks like a sweater!” I caught the woman at the next table smiling knowingly.
Just so you don’t think I’m neglecting crochet: I started working with Patons Grace on the Cupcake sweater from SnB Happy Hooker. More on that in a few days.
Your raglan sweater looks so cool & is coming along so nicely!
Good luck on ch. 5 — you’re almost done!
Is any of it your dissertation — too funny. No BS-ing that advisor of yours, huh? Mine has practically abandoned me, but then again, I guess I left the country. Good luck — you ARE almost finished!
Loving your sweater.. what color are you going to use for the cupcake sweater…? Thanks for posting on my Oasis Halter.
Thanks, everyone! I certainly hope to be done soon. Sheila, I’m using the “Viola” color, a light periwinkle.
