Spring Preview of IK Knits is up!

[mwedzi]

I think IK is published each season. People generally say that the patterns are simpler and more accurate than Vogue Knitting. They aren't all easy, that's for sure. It's not like those (several) magazines that are made with just beginners in mind. But I think they're within everyone's reach if they have help (which you do, in the form of KH).

The Keyhole top is definitely the gold medal winner for me. Um, is there any way I can wear that with a bra? Cable Down Raglan is nice, too. To-knit list getting ever longer. When am I going to work on my own designs?

ohh I can't wait to get it.. I really like those Enterlac socks.. and ribs and lace tank.. the green tee.. and dollar and half cardigan... have no idea how will I find the time to work on them....

They are more accurate than Vogue (though they do make mistakes and they don't always admit it!) I think the patterns can be tough, but an advantage is that they typically have a lot of "how-to" to go along with their patterns (like, "see page 85 for this technique). I find the how-tos pretty easy to follow.

I must have the slant V neck. MUST! I would sort of like to lose 50 lbs first though, so I can look foxy in it...I am also jonesing for those argyle socks. I have no idea what I would do with them - I am a slacks and ankle-length skirts gal. But that might not stop me from making them.

With my "backlog" I am thinking I need to quit my job, quit eating, quit going to the bathroom and quit sleeping. I never really cared for any of those things anyway! (I liked myjob plenty before I started to knit, now it just gets in the way, lol).

I get to knit at my job if it isn't busy. Except for Sunday afternoons/evenings that's only a couple hours a week though.

I love the ribs and lace tank! The entrelac socks, both raglans, both socks, even maybe the pillow all look tempting....look at the thong! Anyone wanna double dog dare me? It sure is pretty.

I am SO buying that issue!

I like pretty much everything except the Apron. (poor model...it makes her look pear-shaped.)

I wouldn't knit some of it, but I like pretty much everything.

I'm not even going to peek!! I have a subscription and my favorite thing is to curl up with a cup of tea and really enjoy it! I don't want to spoil the fun.
