the one i want to knit most is this one
the problem ? it's knitted in laceweight yarn.- i have no laceweight yarn in my stash - i don't knit laceweight yarn because it would take forever and make my hands hurt
- i don't want to buy any more yarn as i have an accusing stash taking up room under the bed (and i mean this - i really don't want to buy any more yarn this year)
- i have a couple of options in dk or worsted weight yarn that would look great
- i don't know how to upscale the pattern without creating a shrug that would fit an elephant....
i also like this one but perhaps with a different neckline.
that neckline would drive me nuts - see how the model is clutching at it???

Not an uberknitter, but I'd say you could adjust the number of stitches... or if the pattern is written in sizes, you could try a smaller size... but that might not be sufficient. It may require some math, figuring knits per inch for the pattern, and then for the yarn you're using... then figuring out how the pattern works (if it's based on multiple of some number, etc...) I'm not sure if this is helpful, but I think you might be able to do it!
email me with your measurements and I'll work it out for you tonight
