If you answered mostly As, Sylvar is your sweater. Its open boatneck silhouette is as sexy as it is effortless. Its stitches are cast-on and worked downward so the sweater can be tried on as you knit for a perfect fit. Sylvar is the perfect addition to your closet. If Bs bounced to the top of your list, cast on Emmery. Its look is clean and classic with just a bit of pop with the ruffles. Worked entirely in Stockinette stitch from the top down with minimal finishing, this is perfect for a beginner or anyone who enjoys a simple knit. If you couldn’t stop saying C, get to know Cerie. Designed in the boho style, its unexpected look bring loads of compliments your way. A simple knit and purl stitch pattern is worked in short rows, making for an unusual, exciting addition to your knitwear. If Ds were in the majority, Annie is your answer. Delicate and a little flirty, this tank creates a silhouette that flatters a variety of figures. Knit Annie and you’ll be sure to act on that impulse to wink at the cutie across the room. If it seemed like Es were everywhere, put Charlie on your needles. A go-to sweater that can be dressed up or down, you’ll always be able to change your look. A seamless pullover, stitches are picked up to create a cowl and puffy sleeves.

    CHARLIE, but I’m all over the place on the survey. I love the shape. I’m in Texas – long sleeves are NEVER tolerated, nor is sleeveless (say my upper arms), but I the sleeve length on Charlie is just right.

    I had to skip question 9. I don’t know who any of those people are, and question 10 didn’t have sock yarn! It’s almost the only thing I knit with (so while I had mostly As… I think I need to knit with the fine and ultrafine yarns).

    Though all of the sweaters are lovely and I’d wear them all.
