Favourite pattern makers?

What are your favourite pattern makers? I want to get new names to add more variety to my long list of tried and true designers!

Honestly drops free patterns are great! I’ve knitted 3 so far. Love their vintage ones!
Also, I’m knitting something based on Ozetta’s saddle shoulder cardigan and I’m really enjoying how her patterns are written!!

I've been too nervous to try the Drops patterns. I'm a visual learner and nobody seems to have drops knit along video. But, I'm very tempted! I love their designs. Maybe once I become more experienced!

I think there are a lot of great looking drops patterns but I think they are so hard to read 😅 Need to use a lot of extra brain power to understand them.
They don't always write out all the steps but expect you to figure it out.

I've enjoyed everything I've made by Sari Nordlund, and I really love her aesthetic. I love Caitlin Hunter's designs, too, but people seem to have a lot of fit issues with her patterns.
