I'm almost done with Veronique, from French Girl Knits. All I have left to do is pick up stitches and knit the decorative border. (It looks much better worn than on a hanger!) This yarn is Jaeger Trinity, in a denim blue. I first thought I would just do the border with the same yarn, but I then I thought it would be more interesting to use a contrasting border with the same yarn in light gray, which I also have in my stash. I thought I'd try one of these reader polling things and put the question to the blogsphere, just to see what you think. Which would you prefer -- the same color border, or the light gray contrast border? The polling gadget is on the sidebar. (I haven't figured out how to get one of these within the blog entry)

What a cute pattern! I really love all her designs. I voted for the same color because I think that will make it more wearable. Sometimes if you have a contrasting color it can limit what you can wear it with.... But either way it will be gorgeous!
I never say this to people (usually they say it to me, LOL) but you are really FAST! I can't believe how fast you knit this one up! It looks great. I voted for contrast to give it a little more "pop".
Can't you just paste the HTML from the poll into the body of the blog post? I'm no Blogger expert though. Typepad is alot easier to use.
I agree with Robin - you are one of the fastest knitters I know! And she's right - people are usually saying that about *her* - LOL. Anyway, I can't wait to see this on you. The color will be amazing!

That is gorgeous, even on the hanger!!
Hmm. I've never been a fan of contrast borders, so I would go for the same color border. But with the right colors, anything can go!
