Choose Your Own
31 January 2010 · 10 Comments
I am a child of the 80s. As such, “Choose Your Own Adventure” books play an alarming role my memories of my distant youth. The writing was contrived, the illustrations dreadful, and yet they still filled me with an unreasonable fascination. In honor of their (doubtless unsavory) influence, I’m letting you choose your next knitting adventure.
I have two patterns ready to go, Graupel (on the left) and Caprice (on the right). Click on either to see gigantic versions if you’re so inclined. One will be released in February and the other in March. You pick. I will take it as a given that they are both lovely and eagerly anticipated. I promise I won’t feel slighted on behalf of the one that doesn’t win. Leave a comment saying which you prefer, and the one with the most votes by Friday or so will be the next pattern I release.

I’d like to see Graupel released first…and could you hurry so I can cast on for the Olympics (LOL!)
Beautiful patterns, both.

They’re both gorgeous, but Graupel looks more like a February sock

I am super hoping Graupel wins– both are absolutely lovely, of course, but I have been dying to cast on for Graupel from approximately the second I saw the first photo of it, and while I’m on a no-more-yarn-(for-now) diet, February is my birth month and there shall be one exception, precisely for this sock, since I think I justttt found the perfect color for it.
I just… cannot quite adequately express my love for this pattern, LOL. Beautiful work on both, as always.

Graupel is definitely my favorite here, although I could easily knit both. Graupel has an elegant look to it.
