I’m going to go for ‘Maggie’ by Kim Hargreaves. I can so see that in red with a pair of jeans, or spicing up a simple dress. Beautiful pattern!

I vote for Making Waves, and Audrey In Unst as a close second. Actually I’ve had my eye on those for a while myself – would be great to see you knit either of them

I think you should do the Peggy Sue. I love the ribbing and it’s so reto’ish. And that red is an awesome color. I can see the Peggy Sue over a black tank top, white shirt. or over a complimenting sun dress (I live in TX, always have to carry a sweater or you will freeze indoor with the air condition blowing. lol)
QTWIQ on Rav, where I saw your blog and contest.

I think the Peggie Sue or the Hampton Cardigan would accent your “girls” which seem to be a very positive feature in most of your photographs. If ya got ’em, appreciate ’em. You’d look super.
I should be so lucky

I would recommend Ysolda Teague’s “Coraline” cardigan. I’ve just finished mine and think the pattern is beautiful. It would look lovely with trousers or a skirt and you could use it for a fancier or a more casual look. Good luck with whatever you decide to knit!

You’ve certainly made it difficult; those are all great choices but I would say the Making Waves cardigan. It would look beautiful in the red!

I think you should knit Joy, from Rowan Vintage Knits. I really like the patterning – it’s interesting, but subtle. And the collar is a nice touch.

I like the pattern “Peasy”. The beautiful red silky yarn will look so dressy with a pair of black pants or a black skirt.

I vote for the diminishing rib cardigan. It’s flattering to most body shapes, and would look great with so many outfits!

I like the Laccaria cardi. It has fun and interesting structural details without being frilly. There’s nothing like frilly to destroy your credibility in the workplace!
