It's officially the first day of Spring 2025, and today I spotted this fully decorated Christmas tree on a balcony in Glasgow!

Dear knitters of Mastodon,
Many years ago, I started this top-down circular yoke stranded colourwork jumper, hoping to knit my own ugly Christmas jumper, using a pattern by Drops (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/157-23-silver-stag), using DK-weight Drops Karisma yarn (https://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/garnstudio-drops-karisma), knitting on 4mm needles.
I stopped knitting because I made a mistake and couldn't face the frogging.
Now I want to frog the whole thing and start over, in part because I feel like my stranded colourwork skills are much better now.
I am wondering if I should find a different pattern? Maybe I don't want the jumper to be "ugly" anymore, so it would be a bit more wearable? Don't know if ugliness vibes are completely avoidable, given the colourways that I have.
QUESTION: do you have any suggestions for your favourite circular yoke stranded colourwork jumper patterns that might suit the yarn that I have (MC: 500 grams / 1000 m; CC: 100 grams / 200 m)?
I never actually completed a circular yoke, or a stranded colourwork jumper, so maybe something that has some good alternation between the colours would be best, just in case I don't manage a good tension on longer floats.
So the #Christmas tree left the house today. Back in its box for the next 10 months.
Yes it's 22nd of Jan... But fun = fun.
Watched this last night to celebrate the tree's moving day: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt11092178/ - Great movie.
Only thing missing was an #Xmas themed #CraftBeer
Always feel #melancholy packing away Santa and Rudolph for another year. "Will we see you next #Xmas?" I hope so!
Help, I've been turned into #lego !!!
