~Had a yen to look at knitting patterns last night, so I went to Ravelry. Oh the patterns and yarns to see! I’m usually at the site looking for a particular pattern, haven’t done much surfing there. Clicking the Patterns tab I noticed a Hot Right Now column. I decided to look at which patterns are in the top 20. There are 6 patterns which had over 10,000 hits. These are the 6 most visited in order of hits. I have included the price at the end of each pattern line; three are free and three charge money.
Gap-tastic Cowl by Jen Geigley – 22537 hits – Free
Honey Cowl by Madelinetosh – 20869 hits – Free
Color Affection by Veera Valimaki – 18553 hits – $$
Featherweight Cardigan by Hannah Fettig – 17095 hits – $$
Wingspan by maylin Tri’Coterie Designs – 15473 hits – Free
Hitchhiker by Martina Behm – 12761 hits – $$
The only pattern I don’t have is Featherweight Cardigan. I don’t really wear lightweight sweaters. I usually wear vests since I get too hot. Fabulous! These are the most poplar right now by far! Another one has 6000+ hits, but most of the other top 20 are down in the hundreds of hits. Still, it must be exciting to make the Top 20!
Curls and Q 
I participate on a few forums on Ravelry, but I mainly go there for the inspiration. I’ve been thinking about making the Hitchhiker for a little while. If I do decide to make it, I’ll be making some modifications.

Inspiration! That’s why I was there. I have so many projects running around in my head that it’s a total traffic jam in there. I really need to install stop lights so I can get somewhere. Oooh, if you make Hitchhiker I’d love to see the modifications!!! Drop stitch?
