The Knits You Long For

It was so much fun yesterday reading about what everyone wears to keep them warm on cold days. Now I have another question. As knitters we can choose to knit whatever we want in whatever yarn (budgets allowing of course) we want. So I want to know what do you wish you had in your wardrobe and what yarn would you knit it in? I have a few things I’d like but for various reasons I just haven’t knit them, yet.

H in her Rogue

Ages ago, pre-Ravelry in the dark ages of blogging there was a KAL for the Everyday Cardigan. I watched as a bunch of these were knit in all shades of Peace Fleece. I went so far as to buy the pattern and read it over but I never did buy the yarn. Oh now there are kits available! It is for sure on my one day list and while I may not use Peace Fleece I would really like to make some sweater with it. While we’re talking about sweaters, I’d also like to knit a Rogue for myself. I knit one for H a few years back and it was a very satisfying pattern to knit. The sweater itself turned out beautifully. I would knit it in a heathered wool, probably Cascade 220 since I love that yarn. In the other knits area I’d like some knee socks. I know I say that over and over again but I really do want them. I want to wear them on a brisk fall day with a skirt. There are so many fantastic patterns: Vibbles Kneesocks, Q, and of course Clessidra. I know once I knit a pair I will go on a jag and knit a bunch and that would be a good thing. So how about you, what knits do you wish for?
