I love Julissa, Jacob’s sweater and Bhakti!
I am intrigued by the Hestia slippers, in awe of Bhakti, and in love with Julissa.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bhakti
I think that Jacob’s Pullover is a great looking sweater, and amazing size inclusivity. I’ve already put it on my list!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/jacobs-pullover

Me too!

So many beautiful designs. Love the Morowa mitts and Hestia slippers and I have wanted to make a Wave of Change jacket. My next project will be the Quill Tee by Tif Neilan.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/quill-tee
I just checked that one out and I love it too! That might be my next project!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/ridgeland-pullover
I love Tamy Gore’s Ridgeland Pullover. I have always been drawn to her beautiful shawls, but she has some gorgeous sweaters as well.
Oh wow, I love the Patina Scarf by Jeanette Sloan. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/patina-scarf-2
Hestia slippers by Mieke John & Morowa Mitts by Sylvia Watts-Cherry.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wave-of-change-jacket

https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wave-of-change-jacket
Nice shape. Does not look complicated.
So many wonderful patterns. This one draws me to the beauty of the Arctic tundra. https://ravel.me/hytte
Love this! Thanks for sharing – I’ve added it to my favorites and I love the lopi yarns.
I love the Sheep Camp Sweater by Jennifer Berg. The pattern is awesome and a fun sweater
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/night-out-cardigan by Joji Locatelli
Tundra by the Petite Knitter in Arctic Canada
Julissa, Jacob’s pullover and the orange love ponchi!
There’s a few of Brandi’s designs I’d love to make. Here’s one of them: https://ravel.me/shawl-collar-jacket-21
Bhakti. Rich color, intricate texture, extravagant size.
I just bought Jacob’s Pullover – such a great style!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wallflower-pullover-2
So many to choose from but this one jumped out at me!
Oh, this was such a hard decision, loved several of them, but I went with the patina scarf.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/patina-scarf-2
Wow! So many beautiful designs. I love the Morowa mitts and Hestia slippers in your gallery and I have been wanting to make a wave of change for a while. My top pick would be the Quill Tee by Tif Neilan
So many great patterns! Haven’t gotten through them all/ but I keep coming back to this one, by Yuki Shimizu:
https://ravel.me/sea-sweate
Your link got cut off ☹️
I love the Patina scarf shown above by Jeanette Sloan.
Julissa is a beautiful design–I want to cast-on right now! I also really like Denise Bayron’s designs. Her Hatdana is perfect. And her Wave of Change Jacket is in my queue: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wave-of-change-jacket
Love color story & Jacob’s pullover equally- so very different
I posted in sunday’s comments but didn’t include a link to a pattern, so here it is.
Hiroko Fukatsu
Tsubaki pullover
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/tsubaki-pullover
I stopped dead at the Patina scarf.
Julissa. Pretty design and the model is knit in my favorite color!
I like the Shawl for EveryBODY by Fatimah Hinds. It looks simple enough that I could tackle it – it’s got some cables, some eyelets for texture and could be done with garter stitch or stockinette. But all the patterns look amazing!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/shawl-for-everybody
Thanks for building and sharing the list with us!
I love the Khanyisa cardigan by Noma Ndlovu aka Bigger Than Life Handknits https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/khanyisa
I think it is the color that brought my eye to
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library Chase Clark Blue Hour
So many beautiful designs! I already had The Long Skinny in my queue, so I am choosing that one. The ability to use up bits and pieces of yarns leftover from other projects is always an attractive feature in a project!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-long-skinny
I LOVE Kunbi Ayo-Okanlawon’s Arewa. I’ve made two of them, one for myself and one as a gift. It is an extremely fun knit and it is a staple in my wardrobe in the summer.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/arewa-short-sleeve-pullover
Bhakti is in the queue – beautiful!
The Clairlea wrap cardigan by Laura Chan – https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/clairlea-cardigan.
Size inclusive, flattering for all body shapes and I love the cuff detail.
Orange Love Poncho by Gaye Glasspie. She has such a sense of style and fun in her designs!
The Shawl Collar is hands down my favorite! I don’t even like using big needles & yarn, but I would make an exception and make/wear this one — it is unique, versatile, and gives us the opportunity to use a variety of techniques.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-shawl-collar
Oops – I forgot to add the designer name. The Shawl Collar by Brandi Cheyenne Harper is hands down my favorite! I don’t even like using big needles & yarn, but I would make an exception and make/wear this one — it is unique, versatile, and gives us the opportunity to use a variety of techniques.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-shawl-collar
Anything by Minliang, but I love Good Harvest https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/good-harvest
Gorgeous! Had to save this one.
Oh! Look at this https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/romani It’s crocheted and lovely!! Romani by Diane Ugo
My favorite sock pattern is by Safiyyah Talley, The Everyday Sock, in her awesome book, Knit 2 Socks in 1: Discover the Easy Magic of Turning One Long Sock into a Pair!. Highly recommend!!
I love the comfortable feeling I would get from wearing this sweater, “Share Sweater” by Eri Shimizu.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/share-sweater
I think I want to change my answer to Jacob’s Pullover, by Safiyyah Talley- I love that split neck!
Midna by Leila Raabe Designs. Never mind winning. i bought it. Off to my stash and pins.
The delicate, airy lace stitches of the Lemon Sorbet Shawl depicts Natures beauty. I have the yarn to duplicate this gorgeous project.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wild-poppy-pullover
I love Tif’s designs and I have a solid collection!
I’ve already made a Wave of Change jacket. It’s a good addition to my wardrobe. Jacob’s Pullover by Safiyyah Talley looks like an everyday go to piece of clothing.
Shawl for Everybody by Fatimah Hinds
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/shawl-for-everybody
I really enjoyed making Tressa Weidenaar’s Artifacts Shawl.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/artifacts-shawl
Brette by Rastus Hsu. It’s on Ravelry- not sure how to link….
I love this fabulous designers work as much as I love her energy and enthusiasm which is evident in her photos! https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/arewa-short-sleeve-pullover
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cadenza-wrap. Oh….la…..la!
I love the Morowa Mitts . They have wonderful bright colors and a striking design
The shawl collar! https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-shawl-collar
Hi I would like to try the Hestia slippers. They look wonderful!!!
Thanks for the great list! I was attracted immediately to the Hestia Slippers https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/hestia-slippers and going there in Ravelry found it is in 52 Weeks of Socks! I have that tome right here by my chair, yay. And reading through Ravely’s some of the notes by makers, I found a link to published errata for mot just the slippers but other patterns in that book. Soooo helpful! Such a cool book and the slippers are gorgeous. Whoever thought of adding thrums to slippers?! This clever designer did!
Fatimah Hinds has been catching my attention lately. I really love Shawl for EveryBODY mentioned above. End to end construction and built in edges are great design features. I think I’ll be making it with some yarn I picked up from Lakisher Hurst f Sassy Black Yarns https://www.sassyblackyarns.com/
Gaye Glasspie’s Reversible Diamonds is gorgeous, even if it’s not shown in orange – which her signature color if you follow Gaye on Instagram (and you should – ggmadeit for thoughtful, beautiful, and honest posts).
(https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/reversible-diamonds-2)
Morowa Mitts by Sylvia Watts-Cherry
Uhura by Connie Chang Chinchio is my favorite summer tank top. I love her designs!
On the main page for this give-away, there are some slippers–for the feet–yes. Can’t get to the pattern because I can’t find a way to filter the search. Sad because I have been looking for a slipper pattern.
The morowa mitts are not only beautiful, but a great way to use up some
stash.
Yumiko Alexander is a genius in my book. Her designs are flattering to different bodies, her instructions are clear, and the garment construction is clever. My new favorite: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bamboo-13#
Care for a little crochet with a clever new stitch? This one, by Jen Dettelbach, https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lines-stripes–coffee-oh-my
Tina Tse. Frequency Sweater. Tnatseknits.com/patter-sop/frequency-sweater.
Hard choice between Waves of Change and the Sheep Camp Sweater. Both have been on my radar for a while.
Wave of Change Jacket by Denise Barton.
Elegant, great texture, and very functional!
I love it!
I have admired Francoise Danoy’s work for some time and in particular, as I wear a lot of them, her cowl “Taha Moana Cowl”. Very pretty!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/taha-moana-cowl
Toni Lipsey’s Flatiron Shawl keeps calling my name! https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/flatiron-shawl
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sabr
This pattern by Nidhi Kansal is breathtaking!
Hard to pick a favourite I would go with Cadenza Wrap &/or Burkhart
Winterfarm Toque by Tif Neilan. I’m making it out of Atlas. Great hat.
My current obsession is the Alatau Yoke sweater by Ainur Berkimbayeva.
Ravelry pattern link: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/alatau-yoke
Too many to pick, but I also love Julissa.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/julissa
https://ravel.me/the-rose-that-grew-from-concrete
I made this shawl. It is awesome! Has a very creative lace section, but it is just a small panel as I am not big on lace knitting. I never have a lifeline and I almost always make a mistake! It has bobbles, a beautiful edging. It’s great!!!
I love Bhakti by Nidhi Kansal (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bhakti). What a beautiful shawl!
Right now, I’m working on Quill Tee. It’s a simple, but delicate design and it highlights the La Bien Aimee yarn that I’m using.
Thank you for reminding me about the Patina Scarf by Jeanette Sloan. I loved it when I first saw it but it sadly got buried in my queue.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/patina-scarf-2
Morowa mitts by Sylvia, so pretty and practical!
So happy to see Vanessa Smith on this list. Another of her patterns that I really love is the Avalyn cardigan
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/avalyn
Love this pattern from thepetiteknitter. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/piksii
I love the Ginger Cowl pattern by Toni Lipsey! https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/ginger-cowl
Denise Bayron’s Wave of Change Jacket
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wave-of-change-jacket
Jennifer Berg’s Sheep Camp Sweater has been in my queue for a while now (her Eye Dazzler Sweater is stunning too). I love all of her designs!
Voting for Safiyyah Talley. I bought her sock book which is fantastic! Thank you, Safiyyah.
Tamy Gore’s Livie shawl: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/livie-2
I am loving Four Quarters by Julie Robinson. I love to see how some models have the tie differently. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/four-quarters
Morowa MItts !
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/morowa-mitts
Morowa Mitts are beautiful!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/morowa-mitts

https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/riley-tee
I like the pine sweater by Lauren McElroy https://www.motherofpurl.net/shop/pine-sweater-knitting-pattern
Pebbles and Pathways Socks by Marceline Smith are an all time sock favorite!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pebbles–pathways-socks
Pebbles & Pathways Socks Marceline Smith are a perennial favorite!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pebbles–pathways-socks
So many amazing patterns and new to me designers! I have my eye on the Mowena mitts and cowl, I want to practice color work and this looks like a nice smaller project to experiment with color.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/ladder and twists
This is a cabled pullover by RiRiki
I super love Julisa by Vanessa Smith
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/julissa
Fun colorwork for stash busting!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/morowa-mitts
It’s hard to pick my favorite pattern from Jennifer Berg. Eye Dazzler and Sheep camp Sweater are both gorgeous.
I had to add the Eye Dazzler link too!
So many of these patterns are already in my library, favorites and queue! yamagara’s Lapis tee is a perfect way to use up a single skein of variegated yarn (that’s NOT a shawl or cowl!), and I have yarn set aside for it.
A non-Ravelry resource that includes a pattern currently on my needles: Radicle Threads magazine. I’m knitting the incredible Braiding Sweetgrass socks from Issue 1.
https://radiclethreads.com/
So many in my to-make list! And discovering more. But, Vanessa Smith’s Farpoint Shawl holds a special place in my heart. Just searching for that perfect science green https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/farpoint
I have to say, I think Denise Bayron’s Wave of Change is just dreamy! And while she’s not necessarily a designer, I really enjoy Dana Williams-Johnson’s columns.
I loved Jennifer Berg’s Sheep Camp Sweater. The designers are all so wonderful.
Desert Nights Cowl by Jennifer Berg — the colors! ❤️
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/desert-nights-cowl
Forgot to thank you for the great list of designers!
The Sheep Camp Sweater by Jennifer Berg!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sheep-camp-sweater
I have the Julissa sweater (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/julissa) by Vanessa Smith in my queue and looking forward to buying some yarn at VKL in NYC this weekend to start casting on!
I’ve had Francoise Danoy’s Aumangea Pullover on my “to knit” list for far too long. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/aumangea-pullover
Loving Vanessa Smith’s Julissa pattern! I have some lovely wool just waiting to be knit into this lovely sweater!!
simple and stunning design.
Currently favoring the Strata Sweater by Tif Neilan. I love how the choice of color can change the entire look of the sweater. It is on my to do list this year.
I love Umbriel by Sylvia Watts-Cherry
I’d love to knit The Travel Sweater by Tif Neilan. When it was released, it hit me that it was the perfect design for me to use a beautiful single skein of mohair I have in my stash.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-travel-sweater
https://ravel.me/la-prairie
by Joji Locatelli
or just ANYTHING by Joji. Love it ALL.
There are so many great patterns by BIPOC designers! Next on my list to knit is the Frequency Sweater by Tina Tse.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/frequency-sweater
I forgot to include the link so here it is 🙂
I’m absolutely in love with this sweater by Vanessa Smith! I don’t know that I would have found it without this list. I don’t typically look at worsted weight sweaters but with our upcoming move to the PNW this is sure to be needed.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/julissa
I love following Toni Lipsey @tlyarncrafts on IG and want to jump in to Tunisian crochet with one of her patterns – the AdventUrous Scarf and Juniper Cowl will be great for using some of the many mini skeins in my stash!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/adventurous-scarf
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/juniper-cowl-3
So many to choose from! Great patterns and designers. But my hats off to Jonah Larson, the boy who crochets and has funded many projects for the school in Africa he would have attended if he hadn’t been adopted.
Marowa Mitts by Sylvia Watts-Cherry is what I’d pick straight away off this list!
My choice is the Overthrow Wrap by Joji Locatelli
How to choose? So many beautiful patterns! I finally chose https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-peaceful-people-hat because it is not only beautiful, but I could knit it up quickly enough to be wearing it before winter is over.
Loved settling in to these great suggestions – some new to me, some familiar and on my favorites list.
Jacob’s Pullover is definitely my favorite – it features my favorite neckline. I also favorited the Hestia Slippers and the Lemon Sorbet Shawl.
I love “Sunrise Over Blue Skies” by Fatima Hinds! I’ll be going to an interweave yarn event this coming June and I plan to shop for yarn for this design.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sunrise-over-blue-skies
I love Vanessa Smith’s Novemberist mitts (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/novemberist-mitts) and Laura Chau’s Turbulence Cowl (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/turbulence-cowl)
And pretty much all of Jennifer Berg’s colorwork!
The Patina scarf was so lovely that I decided to buy the whole book! Nice stuff
I love Shirley Paden designs especially this very easy to knit Lacey dress
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/09-lacy-dress
Darci Kern with this lovely: https://ravel.me/cuddle-puddle-wrap
Jennifer Berg — https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/shikis-cowl
Lucky Hat Wrap, by Safiyyah Talley. She is a very talented designer and has many paid for designs, but she designed this unique hat with cancer patients in mind and has it for free on Ravelry.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lucky-hat-wrap
OOOOOHHHHH! So many lovlies to choose from I’d have to (after long hard thought) choose either Jacob’s Pullover from Saffiyah Talley https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/jacobs-pullover or Waves of Change Jacket by Denise Bayron https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wave-of-change-jacket. I’ll be making both!
I love the patterns of Amy Gore. I’ve knit the Pippen, but I have Cohesive and Imani in my Library waiting to go. In looking through the designers, I fell in love with 2 Java patterns, Honey & Lavender Shawl and Living Coral Shawl.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pippen
Oops! Hit return too fast.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/living-coral-shawl
And I have Michele Wang’s Vanora on the needles. Have knit designs by her back when I was buying printed patterns!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/vanora-2
Julissa by Vanessa Smith is already in my queue. I’ll be at VKL in NYC this weekend looking for some sumptuous yarn to do it justice!
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/milu
Tamy Gore. swoon
Tara-Lynn Morrison (Goodnight, Day) has a plethora of super bulky yarn sweater patterns that I love, and Irene Lin – beautiful knitwear for a hot climate.

Wave of Change Jacket by Denise Bayron
I have the Sedona sweater by Toni Lipsey in my queue. Not sure where in the queue, but it’s there!!
I love the work of so many. Jennifer Berg’s work is special. I love her cowls and mittens and the stories she tells about them. Especially The Desert Dweller Cowl.
I LoOVE Jennifer Berg’s designs! I’ve already finished two and plan to start another. I love this list and will be exploring other designers as well
Love all of Jenn Berg’s patterns. Too many creative designers to choose just one!

The pattern and yarn are ready for me to begin!
I’ve seen this piece as a sample in my LYS and it is spectacular.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/river-16
Mowora mitts! Probably because I have some lovely uradale yarning staring at me from my stash.
I have had my eye on the lovely Sheep Camp sweater by Jennifer Berg.
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sheep-camp-sweater

Orange Love Poncho!! How can you not love this???!!!! But all of these designers are fabulous!
Rust Never Sleeps by Leila Raven, https://ravel.me/rust-Never-Sleeps
Love the textures in this pattern. It would make a wonderful comfort shawl in a warm, squishy yarn. I can see making it as a square rather than a top-down triangle and making a baby or comfort blanket as well.
I lovr the look of Julissa. Headed to my stash to see if I have enough yardage!
https://ravel.me/julissa
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-downtown-cardigan
Glad I scrolled the BIPOC list. The link above looks like something I would like to try…. After this months KAL!

The”Cadenza Wrap” is my favorite…. although I do love a poncho
Ooos…forgot the pattern link- https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cadenza-wrap
Love this smaller style shawl, and with an eye-catching pattern!
I am so taken with Brandi Cheyenne Harper’s The Shawl Collar, https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-shawl-collar. I am always chilly and this pattern looks like an absolutely perfect remedy for that.
I’m a sucker for baskets (in which to hold my over abundance of yarn!) and Toni Lipsey so you can’t go wrong with her Fireside Basket: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fireside-basket
I love this! Thanks so much for posting the list.
I love this: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/simone-pullover-3

https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/hatdana
Love the versatility and simplicity of the Droplet Capelet by Denise Bayron. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/droplet-capelet
So many to choose from. For a sweater, I love either Julissa by Vanessa Smith or The Sheep Camp Sweater by Jennifer Berg. And, for accessories, i love Bhakti by Nidhi Kansal ( a gorgeous shawl).
I love Jessie Maed’s designs and the fact that all of her patterns are size inclusive as well as her models. I like so many of her designs but my favorite is the cozy classic raglan: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cozy-classic-raglan

I’ve been wanting to do a crochet cover up and like the Kiskeya lace tank. Elisabeth Desamour.
Aurora Cardigan by shinysuperhero really caught my attention.
Really enjoying Tif Neilan’s Color Story and this one – Stripes of Joy. Bringing some brightness and joy into the winter months! https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/stripes-of-joy-sweater
I like this
https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/juno-5

https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/when-the-rainbow-is-enuf
I did not need this Ravelry rabbit hole.. thanks! I’m definitely leaning towards Noriko (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/ohmay-tee) and Joji (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/overthrow-wrap) patterns and may have quickly added some free patterns to my library but the Novemberist Hat and Mitts are super fun too…. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/novemberist-hat and https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/novemberist-mitts
The Pebble shawl: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pebbled

Sisipho by Noma Nd,ovu
How hard to choose just one favorite! Thank you for sharing this list- my Ravelry faves have grown. There were some names I knew but so many more I didn’t and I’m glad to. I am really wanting Kiyomi Burgin’s Fredericton shawl collared cardigan to fill a hole in my wardrobe. And it looks like it comes in so many sizes. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fredericton
I love the Rolling Pastures Shawl by Vincent Williams. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rolling-pastures-shawl

I didn’t even realize she was a BIPOC designer.
Also, after I got over my initial embarrassment over loving Tiktok, I am amazed at the BIPOC creators I am finding on that platform! I had no idea, for instance, how many Black men are out there creating beautiful knit and crochet pieces. Mind blown and I am here for all of it!
Love Jeannette Sloan, and thanks for exposing me to people that others have suggested! Might go on a pattern shopping spree!
I like this cardigan with feathers very much and I hope one day to knit it and wear it with full pleasure https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/quill-5
Love the Bhakti shawl by Nidhi Kansal!
I love patterns by yellowcosmo. This one, https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/colors-and-circles-shawls, Colors and Circles Shawls.

I cannot wait to start making Jennifer Berg’s Eye Dazzler, as it evokes many NM childhood memories. I would like to make several of her cowls as well, having had opportunity to visit Acoma and other Pueblos. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/eye-dazzler-sweater
so many to choose – I love everything by Tif Neilan – my Stratified Sweater is one of my favorites and the Heartwood Stripes is in my queue

Love, love the textures in Bhakti. Looks like fun knitting and a beautiful finished wearable.
I love so many, but just bought this https://ravel.me/iris-crop-top because it made me smile from motherofpurl.net
I love Andrew’s Watch Cap by Jasmin Canty.

Denise Bayron’s design for the Grace pullover hits all the marks for me. I’ve been thinking (dreaming) about just this very look: the no-rib edge, the high neckline, and most especially the cable front panel. It’s perfect! A must knit for me!
gah so many good patterns! It’s hard to choose, but I’m loving Rowena and Broadband by Annie Baker.
I am in love with Like a Cloud (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/like-a-cloud), Rugged Coat (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rugged-coat), Lion Hearted (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lion-hearted), Soyokaze (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/soyokaze), and Newspaper Pullover (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/newspaper-pullover)

Yoke sweaters are so flattering for many shapes and sizes of bodies!
I love the colorwork pattern in the Yakan cowl, and Joji’s Fringed Denim Cowl is great for a one-skein project. So many more… impossible to choose just one!

Don’t know what happened to my first post, so I’ll try again, and with another favorite: Gardeners Prayer Hat by Yamagara. It’s beautiful colorwork plus embroidery:

Fatimah Hinds’ Shawl for EveryBODY is genius! What a perfect idea. Can’t wait to try it!
The Back East Wrap by Jen Peck is my favorite because I’m a fan of graphic patterns.
