I'll be starting with Decimal, but I have my eye on both Aeolian and Shipwreck.

Knitty definitely blew it out of the park this season! :D

i like decimal except for the short sleeves.
i need sleeves to be either full length, or short. anything in the middle gives me the creepy crawlies.

LOVE shipwreck though.
and absinthe
and cachoeira
and reverie.
and i'll probably wind up knitting sourwood too.
this is an AWESOME issue.

*ponders whether decimal could be knit with full length sleeves.*

I'm sure it could - just continue the pattern for a bit longer before starting the shaping. :-)

I've become enamored with the half-length sleeves of late, because I can wear them to work in warmer months and they cover up my EVIL EVIL tattoos, while still allowing my arms to stay relatively cool. ;-)

ahhh. see there's the thing. i'm ALWAYS cold indoors in the summer.
i have never worked anywhere warm enough for short sleeves.
stupid AC.

Yeah, I always have the same issue, but usually a light sweater is enough for me. :-)

I agree with this comment! Those are the three I most want to make. I also love Imagine. And if/when I have kids? Definitely making them Steggie :D

Indeed! My good friends' 3 year old will definitely be getting Steggy for Christmas next year, and I'm trying to figure out how to shrink it enough for my one-year-old nephew. ;-)
