This is the front, sides and back of the Pea Pod Baby Set Cardi for nephew #3, who is expected to arrive on my brother's birthday, August 6. It's 100% merino, so I knit it for a 6 month old, hoping he'll enjoy it when it's cold here in January. Well, HE may not enjoy it, but I know I will enjoy seeing him in it, and maybe so will Lawyer-Pants (my hubby), nephew's parents and Lawyer-Pants' mom.

Lelah-Penny top. See yesterday's post. I finished the sleeve and am now working only on the body.

This is the Lion Brand Incredible yarn racerback top. I'm not hugely excited about it, and only picked it because I have never knit with ribbon-type yarns. Hopefully I'll finish it before the summer's over. The colors are vibrant and fun.

Yarn stash for yet-to-be-started projects. The GGH Savanna in Raspberry is for a cabled turtleneck, and the Rowan Kidsilk Haze in Meadow (yummy yummy yarn) in for the Grannie Smith Cardi. I probably won't start either of these until August so they will be done when it starts to cool down here. I also have some Peruvian Uros Aran yarn in light orchid, not pictured, that might become a Forecast for my mom.
The Knit Pick's Shine Sport in Orchid is for Orangina. My needles arrived yesterday, so I am swatching for this TONIGHT. The elann.com Connemara in Cashmere Blue is for the Prosperous Plum Tank. This pattern only comes in one size (28"), which is a little teeny for me, so I will have to adjust it first. That might not even get started this summer, we'll see.
