A list of things I'd like to knit

I forgot my knitting at home. I should know better by now then to leave the house without it. It's a welcome distraction on a slow workday like today. Although, I really should be taking it easy on my hands. The thing is, I have a lot I want to knit this year, and, as it is, I'm already very behind schedule.

In all honesty, I know I won't be able to get to everything on this list before the year is over. It's a sizable list - pretty ambitious for someone who knits rather slowly. I'll admit, I got a little carried away. It's not my fault that there are so many talented knitwear designers out there making beautiful garments!

These are the select few that I can see myself wearing all the time:

Groovy Tank by Emma Jaeger - I cast this on last weekend and I can already tell that it's going to take me a while to knit up.

Herringbones Cardigan by Amy Christoffers - Everything about this cardigan is stunning, from the bold color to the stitch pattern. I need it in my closet ASAP. Needless to say, I'll probably knit this one next.

MATCHA Jumper by vert knit - Nothing fancy. Just a simple sweater.

Clematis Sweater by Emma Maier - I love the diagonal button band. It's funky.

Amy Top by mochiknits - While I find this top very flattering, I'm not convinced that it suits me. It has potential for sure, but I'm certain that I'd struggle to style it.

Kyoto Keyhole Top by madebyrosh - I've yet to encounter a pattern designed for any gauge, let alone knit one. I'd be curious to see how it knits up.

Ophelia Tank and Top by Tamara Jordan - I can't stop thinking about the decorative hem on this top. God, it's so pretty - especially with the bell sleeves! I can see myself knitting one of each: a sleeveless one, one with short sleeves, and another with long sleeves.
