I've been knitting! With yarn from my stash! Which is a good thing!
First up Citron.
It's an easy knit made interesting with the ruching. I only had just enough yarn for the five pattern repeats. Wish I had more. Details are over at Ravelry if you want more info.
I might keep this or save it for holiday time.
Next up is Boheme. This will be on my go-to list when my husband comes home from work, yet again, and asks me to make something for some young parents, who I have never met before! I messed up the buttonholes (details on Ravelry) but c'est la vie! I made it work and I'm happy with it.
Currently, I'm working on a mindless summer scarf and planning my fall knits. I'm thinking of a "boyfriend" sweater. Any suggestions?

I love the Citron, like you I wish I had had more yarn but its a great knit. Th elittle pink knit is so pretty, they will love!
Beautiful knitting, Jane (and, as always, exceptional photos too!).
Loved your Boston trip recap -- looks like you made some happy memories.
Both knits are lovely. I'm making a Citron too! My first and I can't wait to make another.
Oh they are both lovely. I just love the ruching.
Boyfriend sweater or husband sweater?..hehe.
For my for boys, hubs incl. they have all asked for hoodies...yey!
-my most unfavorite thing to knit x 4.
Now I got myself giggling about you knitting a sweater for your boyfriend, and wondering why a boyfriend needs a sweater... But anyway, no, I can't think of a good one. I'm obsessed with Rosamund's Cardigan, though, which could have the same floppy feel - though not be share-able with your boyfriend!
impressive.
hmm planning ahead for the fall ... that is a good idea.
I really like the ruching and the curling bottom on the first piece. I just finished an easy summer scarf. Sometimes I believe scarves are all I'm meant to knit...
Amazing knits! I am really liking the yarn you used on the Citron!
Boyfriend sweater...I have always love the cobblestone pullover by Brooklyn Tweed. :)
Happy knitting!
I'll say you have been. NICE WORK!
Beautiful colors in the Citron...looks like it'll be the perfect fall shawl!
And such the cute pick top!
