Yarn-Over, Ligature… Same Difference.
lig·a·ture [lig-uh-cher, -choor] noun. — Printing. a character or type combining two or more letters. (Yarn overs aren't all that different)

In October, I won the quarterly challenge prize through the (AWESOME) knit all year community blog that I'm part of. Part of what I won was 10 balls of some lovely merino from WEBS. I have been trying to decide what to make with it, and I think a sweater is in order, but I need help deciding what to make. Here's where you come in :)

I'm going to list the patterns that I'm thinking of, and I'll number them to make it easy. Just post a comment of your top 2 or 3 (in order) and I'll tally the votes and see if it will help me make a decision. OH, and I guess it's just a bonus that these comments are eligible for entries in my contest for November. All of these patterns I either own already, are free, or I don't mind purchasing, so don't let that be a factor.

Thank you so much to all of my readers, I had no idea there were so many of you out there. Happy knitting!

    1st choice #7, Central Park Hoodie - warm and functional, but with plenty of style and appeal.

    2nd choice #3, Bella Paquita - softly feminine, can be dressy or casual.

    3rd choice #1, Wicked - sassy and layerable.

    I also thought that if there is enough for hoodie, there might be enough for two of the others, like #s 3 & 6.

    My first thought: definately #3 - Bella Paquita. SO lovely! The others don't even come close. So thanks for the link; I've saved the pattern to my hard drive!

    My first choice would be #3 Bella Paquita and second choice is #7 Central Park Hoodie. I've been thinking of making that myself. Debbie

    Oh, shoot, I can't decide. #2 or #3 are both GORGEOUS. But I can't decide!

    I say CPH, or Bella, or the sweater w/ round yoke -- so simple, so elegant, such a go-to. Also, the CPH may take more than 10 balls -- cables and hoods take a lot of yarn.

    #1
    #7
    #8

    In that order

    I like the hoodie best and wicked and #8 equally.

    I'm sure whichever you choose will be terrific

    I love wicked. My second choice is Bella.
    purple-power said...
    Well I would have voted for Bella (oh sure - fine for you to say once you know the winner :-) )
    Tammy said...
    Did you decide yet? I like #1 and #4, but they are all great!
