A little Gelato, anyone?

Gelato is knit with two strands of worsted weight wool on US#11 circular needles, so it's a very fast knit. You're looking at the body of the bag, which is done, and only the straps and flap are left to knit. The bottom is open, so before felting, I'll need to sew that closed too.

I just might have to knit myself one of these...

Since Mum's, DSis's and my birthdays are all mid-to-late-August, we typically get together once to celebrate all three (too many calories otherwise). This year, we're celebrating with a fun night out at a local minor league baseball game. This means the 'due date' for my birthday knitting projects (Gelato for DSis and Mum's Cardigan for Mum) is August 25th.
