I thought that it would be fun to see how my ravelry favorited patterns correlated with the actual projects that I finished. To my surprise, at the top of my FO list were hats! Of which I own zero. Hmmm...very interesting. Also of surprise were the higher than expected number of FO's listed under toys, home decor and ornaments. I have always thought of myself as a sweater knitter, but it seems that I am gravitating more to smaller projects. This is most likely due to a lack of time and a shorter attention span. Although from the high number of cardigans & pullovers that are in my rav faves, I still mainly dream about sweaters. And you? Do your rav faves match up to what you actually knit/crochet?

That is very interesting...I don't tend to make garments often...just finished a sweater...but I do make loads of accessories...
ReplyDeleteThat's a great imfographic and it tells so much!
ReplyDeleteThat is really interesting, I want to go and do mine now. Maybe I'll blog about it in the future of you don't mind me pinching your idea?
ReplyDeleteI have never made a garment for myself and only one skirt for the Tween. I seem to be hooked on throws, huge beanbags and handbags. Love your graphic, it is super pleasing to look at.
ReplyDeleteI love this charting AND the differences it shows between dreaming and intention. :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting choice of infographic. I wish I had devoted more time before posting mine. Thanks for the link about knitting paper. I think I'm going to need it!
ReplyDeleteYour graphics are lovely! Such a fun idea. I might have to try something similar at a later date. Thanks for the tip about the paper you used.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a Venn diagram to see if there was any overlap :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting graphics! I haven't checked, but I'm sure my FOs and Favourites don't match up - I add lots of inspirational patterns to favourites, knowing I won't ever make them.
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I feel like mine would be similar. I've been faving a lot of socks and sweaters lately...and my finished projects are 0 for 0 on those!
ReplyDeleteI love your graph paper :D
This is a really interesting project. It is really odd the way our brains think something that is not necessarily correct. I wonder why ....
ReplyDeleteI can't even manage to keep track of my projects on Ravelry, so I'm very impressed by what you have done. I also love all the colors you used on your chart! :-)
ReplyDeleteI must look into my queue and projects and see what it reveals about me. Love your paper!
ReplyDeleteVERY interesting!....I have a lot of sweaters in my Q and I've yet to knit an adult sized one, so you are not alone.
ReplyDeleteInteresting - it's given me an idea to compare what I queue to what I actually knit - I think the outcome might be similar ;)
ReplyDeletethat's a really interesting infographic.
ReplyDeleteI love that sometimes what we think we do isn't actually the reality of the situation.
My favorites are all over the place! I used to try and organize them and then I stopped. Most of my productivity is on smaller projects, too.
