What should I make?

I have 2 skeins of malabridgo, in a dark blue that I have decided I must knit with. Why right now? I am not sure. I had originally bought the yarn to make the backyard leaves scarf from Scarf Style, but I want something pretty now, not a scarf for next winter.

So help me decided what I should cast on for tonight:

Anthropologie Capelet, by the amazing Julsey.

Minisweater, by Stefanie of Glampye

I have sweaters in both styles that I like. So I will wear either pattern. I am leaning towards one, but I wanted to hear what you thought before I decided! So leave me a comment, so I can cast on tonight. I need a simple fast pretty knit!

I vote for the capelet. I think the yarn would be better used with that pattern.

I like the minisweater. It accentuates your "you-know-whats" really well! But either one is nice. :)

I love the capelet. But the minisweater is cute too. Hmmmm, I'm no help whatsoever.

I have some bright yellow malabrigo that I was saving up for the minisweater (but now that I'm making Forecast in bright yellow, those plans may be scrapped). I vote for the minisweater, just because I think the capelet needs a more solid color to look polished.

I've made three of the caplets and they are so easy. I really, really like the pattern. So, that's my vote! And that yarn is amazing!

My vote: anthropologie capelet!

So glad to read the update about your (non)move, sock photos... DFS! The shawl came out really pretty!

Capelet! :-)

I vote for the Anthropologie capelet. In fact, I'm going to get the pattern right now! I need one!

I vote for the minisweater. Honestly, its souper cute! And I don't like the capelet so much. But thats just my humble opinion :)

It depends on your bodytype, I suppose. From the pictures I've seen, I think the mini-sweater/boobholder has been more flattering.

Also, not sure if you're into dance music but here's a nice remix of Dolly Parton's Jolene (your name made me think of it): http://www.divideandkreate.com/jolene.htm
