Favorite Patterns

[untonuggan]

I'm curious - what are some of peoples'  favorite patterns? I have some folks in my circle who just started knitting, or who just got back into knitting, or are curious about knitting.

So here's some musings I have, if folks are up for it amidst holiday knitting and general revelry/chaos:

• What are you knitting right now? (Unless it's super sekkrit)
• What's a pattern you've knit before and have knit/want to knit again?
• What are some good patterns for beginners?
• What's a knitting skill (cables, bobbles, lace, reading charts, entrelac) that you're interested in learning (perhaps because the patterns are sooo pretty/interesting/whatever), and you want to learn? Perhaps other folks can offer good suggestions on how to learn that skill...

(P.S. I hope the mod is okay with this.)

Boneyard is definitely the next shawl on my list.

I'd given it a go before and couldn't get into it, but I needed something simple and relaxing to get into last week. I'm waiting until I've blocked it before I cast on another but I'm pleased how it turned out with sparkles.
