I still knit.

I've been working away on the right front of Potter. I'm almost up to the point of doing the first set of buttonholes. (Knitter's milestones are different, and not nearly as exciting, as normal people's milestones...)

It's not very photogenic right now. It looks kind of like the left front, just a mirror image of it.

I am, however, starting to think about "next projects." One I'm seriously thinking about is the Ropes and Picots cardigan from several-years-ago's Interweave Knits. I have the yarn for this in-stash already - not the pricey Rowan that the original was made of, but the KnitPicks tweedy semi-equivalent. (The color I have is Poseidon, it's sort of a blue with a greenish cast - it's a discontinued color so I certainly hope the requirements given in the pattern were correct.). I got the yarn as a Christmas gift several years ago, so it's probably a good time to start knitting it up.

This project does require - and I didn't realize it until I looked at the pattern - a small amount of fingering weight yarn (hopefully in a matching color) for the hems. It won't really show but I'm picky enough that I ordered some fingering weight yarn that will (Hopefully) match. (Funny that I didn't have any in-stash. Well, I had some with some of the colors in it, but it was a multicolored yarn, and I figured that would be more problematic than a single color that was just slightly off.

The other possibility is the Beltane Tee from a back issue of Knitscene. I have some Brown Sheep worsted-weight wool (purchased at the late, lamented Ewe Knit) that I would like to use for this. I have 1225 yards of the yarn, and for the size I'd most likely make, it calls for 1290 - however, several people have noted on Ravelry that the yarn requirements are way overstated, and that makes sense to me, as I've made cardigan sweaters in worsted-weight, with full-length sleeves, for just under 1400 yards of yarn. (A vest takes anywhere from 600 to 800 for my size, unless it's heavily cabled, and I can't imagine this little tee taking that much more than a vest). The people who had done the pattern on Ravelry also warned of copious errors, not all listed on the errata page. (Sigh.) So I guess I'll have to use my common sense if I do this pattern.
