IK, You've Outdone Yourself
My Interweave Knits Winter 2006 issue was in my mailbox this evening.
The quick scoop:
- This issue is heavy. There's a whole lotta projects in there!
- Like always, even though I saw the preview, I'm so much more excited after flipping through the magazine itself.
Favorite Project - Kate's A Cardigan for Arwen
This project has so many things going for it.
- It's clever with its reversible cable along the front and around the hood.
- Its namesake is one of my favorie LOTR characters.
- Its hood is pointy in a playful sorta way.
- It's a cardi so it's great for layering.
- It's versatile and will be as nice paired with khakis at work, or with jeans and a t-shirt for running errands.
Remember when I said I might not knit another sweater this year? Well, I'm seeing me knitting this very soon in a vibrant sapphire blue.
Added Later: About 20 minutes after I wrote this post, I came across NaKniSweMo -- National Knit a Sweater Month. I don't have to tell you that I've been looking online at yarns since then, do I?
Just when I'd let my IK subscription expire, they come up with something pretty and pull me back in!
It's funny how the magazine is always better/more interesting than the online preview. Very much looking forward to mine. Perhaps it will be waiting for me when I get home this evening.
I think this issue actually has fewer projects than many other issues (wasn't fall 04 37?), but the patterns are all SO. LONG. leading to heaviness.
Does she just rock? I think Kate is the bomb.
I can't wait for my issue to come!
Ooh, I saw the pictures of that one on the website, and I lurrrrve it. I want/need one. :)
And no, it isn't just the Lord of the Rings connection that I'm obsessing over. Although I am obsessing over that, too.
knit from your stash!!! ;)
i guess i let my subscription run out. duh. just renewed but goodness knows when it will arrive.
After a year of knitting only one full-sized, sleeved grown up sweater (and not even for me), I now have three sweaters in the works. One's on the needles and almost done, and two more have been wound and are ready for swatching. I guess I need to sign up for the NaKniSweMo!
i too got my IK yesterday and was so excited about it. That cardigan was one of my favs too... oh and thanks, just signed up for NaKniSweMo ;-)!!
Me, too--I will probably knit that sweater as soon as I can get myself out of my shawls-only thing.
Can't wait to get my copy! Kate's sweater looks so cool and very interesting. I wonder if there is anything in my stash...hmmmm.
that is definitely a cute pattern! i can't wait to get my IK.
Ooh that's very pretty. I've been wanting a knitted hoodie as well. I might just have to pick that issue up!
Ohhh, I like this one. Too bad I'm not a subscriber or it would be in my mailbox, too.
Oh, I like the look of that sweater.
That is my favorite sweater also. The simple touch of the cable is wonderful!
Yes, great sweater! It's on my list as well, this one and the amazing Fair Isle.
That was my favorite from the issue, too! Definitely one of the best knitting magazine issues in a long time...
