What an awesome colour! Fits you wonderfully, beautiful neckline, I see why it has heavy rotation.
My most worn project is a pair of fingerless gloves where I extended and lined the wrist, and also lined the back of the hand with double knitting. That really helps keep the hands warm as it insulates the parts of your wrist and hand where the arteries are close to the surface. They allow me to keep my hands pretty warm, but also function.
My most used projects are definitely dish towels. I wear those out, as do many of the people I gift them to.
Ooh those gloves sound extremely snuggly, my hands are always freezing and I basically live on my laptop so fingerless are a lifesaver. Might have inspired me a bit, there!
I go through a fair few washcloth type projects too but use crochet for those so they don't count ๐
