Rogue progress and wee baby knits

The above was taken yesterday morning just before I finished knitting the hem and body together. So far I am absolutely loving the yarn I am using - Jaeger's Shetland, 80% new wool, 20% alpaca, in black, because I like to live dangerously. ;) I also, in my need to not follow directions exactly, made the hem much shorter than the recommended 12 rows.

I am glad I gave up on the original Rogue Yarn (KnitPick's Main Line), it was way too thin for this sweater, but it will eventually get used, probably as a SKB.

I think I will most likely be working on only this for the remainder of the summer (I don't need to rush it since it's not hooded sweater weather right now), or at least until my sister finds out in about 8 weeks whether she will have a girl or a boy so I can then do some baby knitting.

OMG. I never did mention that anywhere. My sister, who thought she's never have a child of her own, is due sometime right around the Winter Solstice. Yay for baby knitting! I have already found a ton of patterns I'd like to make, but want to wait for gender confirmation so I can decide what color(s) to invest in.
