Now with More Thistling

Well, it’s happened again: The Knitters called, and I picked up!

It’s been a fairly brutal year in the making-ends-meet department, (and I know I’m not alone). So much so that I’ve barely had the heart to knit. I know: hard to believe, and pretty brutal, indeed.

But as always, my Knitters have pulled me down off the ledge. In the wee hours of this morning, a whole lot of you downloaded copies ot the Thistle Stole, for which I thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

This flurry of Thistle-buying reminded me that I have not followed through on my threat to create a Thistle Sweater. A while back, I even selected the winner after auditioning three different yarn lines/pallettes - I just never got off the ground desigining it. So thank you also, for this firm shove back into my Native Habitat/Happy Place. I Hereby Proclaim, it is time to visit an old friend! I give you:

A pink thistle this time! I’m going to start swatching right away, before the start-itis can dissipate. While I’m doing that, I need your help, Gentle Readers.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to vote on the following:

Would you prefer cardigan silhouette in A) a circular yoke, or B) a drop-shoulder? Leave a comment with your vote, along with any other ideas/requests you have for the new design. Many thanks in advance for your input! Watch this space for the process…
