Kristi Porter's new book, Knitting in the Sun is now available through Amazon and should be in your bookstores this weekend.
I have a piece in there called Aviara
I snapped this photo of it with a clashy skirt before I sent it to Kristi, last year. This garment is offered in 8 sizes from 30"-58" bust sizes. See more specs for Aviara over on Ravelry.
I also knit the sample for Julia's lovely linen cloche and took this shot of it lounging at the beach.
Make sure you drop by Julia's page to see her gorgeous sleep set.
Piece by piece, patterns from the book are being added to the ravelry page so keep your eyes peeled. From the looks of it, it's going to be a great collection of lovely knits from a whole slew of great designers. I'm glad to be a part of it.

That top is absolutely gorgeous. I love that shade of pink too. It would be perfect down here in Florida.
