Pattern Selection

You can use completion time as a criterion for choosing a pattern, but you need to consider other factors too. The pattern you choose should match your personality. If you love a particular pattern, get it even if it takes you a year to complete.

Some patterns are really too simple for one’s taste. You may have picked it up because it’s said to be for beginners.
