* [[Kake's mitred crochet baby jacket]] - coming along nicely.
* [[Kake's Linen Drape top-down raglan]] - need to try on.
* [[Kake's Birch Shawl|'Birch' shawl]] - about 3/4 done. May need to undo some.
* [[Kake's Cabled Blanket]]

=== Stalled projects ===

* [[Kake's Coiled Baskets|Coiled basket]] - base is about 10cm diameter. I keep forgetting about this one.
* [[Kake's Black Fishnet Crochet Jumper|Black fishnet crochet jumper]] - two small seams left to do, but it's actually wearable now. Which has removed my motivation to finish it properly :)
* [[Kake's Lilac Long Sleeve Top|Lilac long-sleeved top]] - need to decide if I actually like this after all. I think I probably don't - the yarn is too heavy for the design. Try it on once more and then undo it.
* [[Kake's Sonnet for Marna|Marna's cardie]] - need to try it on Marna.
* [[Kake's Noro Coat|Noro coat]] - have run out of yarn!
* Purple crochet baby trousers for Katy - need to buy some poppers that actually work. Or velcro.
* [[Kake's Sirdar Wow Jumper for doop|Jumper for doop]] - black Sirdar Wow - started again with top-down pattern.
* [[Kake's Shiny Blanket]] - 70% of yarn used, will probably need more.
* Hemp [[mitred squares]] thing - still playing about with design.
* [[Kake's jumper for Simon|Simon's jumper]] - need to mail swatches.

=== Reasonably firm plans ===

* hem-up tunic top in [[Jaeger Albany]], 4 or 4.5mm needles.
* scarf for Art in stimpspun mulberry.
* old plans - jumper for Nick, anthracite bead choker for doop
