Texture

I'm very grateful that some fellow Silver Spring-ers have offered up their apartment for the week they'll be on vacation for anyone who needs some alone time. Now, this was intended for people with significant others who might want to get away, but I need to spend some time on my own (and with their cats). This calls for knitting and West Wing, I think, but the eternal question is what do I knit?

Here are my thoughts:






1. Ardent Cardigan in Kathmandu Aran in a tweedy green











2. Whole Wheat Cardigan in Classic Elite Classic Silk














I'm leaning toward the Ardent cardigan for two reasons. One, the gauge is heavier which means I might have a chance at finishing it ever. Two, there isn't any wool content, so I should be safe to knit a lot without hurting my wrists. Oh, and I love me a structured collar. But on the other hand, I'll be able to wear the cotton cardigan sooner than I'll be able to wear Ardent- not that I can even fathom wearing something with sleeves outside of my 60 degree office. So thoughts, all two of my readers? Is there anything about either of these cardigans that you don't like on me?
