Knitting wishlist for 2016

Recently I've been browsing vintage patterns on Ravelry and elsewhere on the net and there have also been several lovely cardigans and jumpers appearing on my instagram feed and Ravelry friends' activity- so lots of inspiration there too. I now have a very long wish list to knit!  I started a cardigan before Christmas, so that will be the first finish, but for the rest of 2016 I hope to get some of the following knitted up.

Two more cardigans in Excelana - lovely wool from Susan Crawford.

A jumper in Malabrigo Arroyo - this yarn is divine and I can't wait to knit with it again - and I like the fitted style of this pattern, which has saddle shoulders - I haven't knitted anything with these before, so this will be a first.

A cotton DK cardigan

A rather lovely cardigan which, unless it turns out that I hate knitting the pattern, I'm sure I'll knit more than once.  This first version will have the waist ribbing in the darker/brighter pink, and the bodice and sleeves in the paler shade, although I'm not sure that I'll shape the ribbing at the front, might be a bit too much of a faff to keep the two colours separate on the same row (should have read the pattern through before deciding on the colour combination...).  And long sleeves I think.

This one I love - I first spotted the jumper being worn by Trixie in one of the early series of Call the Midwife (different colours from the pattern though) and I've wanted to knit the cardigan ever since.

I'll be reversing the colours in this, with the body in yellow and the yoke in blue, white and a paler yellow.

A cardigan in Malabrigo sock - the lace pattern on this looks rather lovely and I can't wait to get started on this, Mal sock is just as lovely to knit with as the slightly thicker Arroyo.

Then a couple of cardigans in Madelinetosh Tosh Sock - another pleasure to knit with.

And finally, one that's been in my queue for ages and is from a book - I love the look of this one.

Actually, if I only get half of these done next year I shall be happy!
