Gigi had finished the knitting part of the Featherweight Cardigan and excavated a UFO: the Odelia from Cocoknits out of Silk and Wool from Tess Yarns. Jasmin is working on sleeve number 4 of Andrew's Baseball Jersey, and is thinking of steeking it. Gigi was planning to knit another shawl, mentioned Romi Hill Designs, and has excavated a former UFO: the Shawl Collared Cowl.

Gigi is working on her Bundi cardigan, and has decided not to do it as magic loop, but rather on two needles. Genevieve is outgrowing her little sweaters, and Jasmin is getting ready to swatch Playful Stripes for her.
