I didn't take many photos this morning. Live-streaming short bits on multiple platforms. A few balloons got low enough to splash and dash further south, but most of them were too high to make the drop. Beautiful morning.

Vogue Knitting, Spring/Summer 2022

This issue offers up a soothing natural palette on the cover, but along with some quiet pullovers, it also offers some strong colors too. There are a total of 18 patterns, including 12 pullovers, 2 cardigans, 1 vests, 1 pair of shorts, 1 wrap, and a bottle holder.

The sweater on the cover is the dramatic despite its pale color: it is asymmetrical, creating both one sleeve with eyelet and a deep slit up the side. Called Corrales, designed by Wei Wilkins, it is made of Cascade’s Cantata yarn, a cotton/wool blend. Make it if you want people to ask you about your clothes. 

Easier to live with is the simple rectangular pullover in pale yellow, one of my favorite colors, with a slip stitch pattern and a polo collar by Rachel Brockman called Virden. Univeral Yarn’s Magnolia which is a luxurious modal/cashmere blend in sock weight. It is a 3 out of 4 for difficult.

The wrap called Mossy Glen uses garter stitch, which is simple, and short rows, which takes more concentration, to make the 5 undulating colors in Indigodragonfly R.O. U. Sport yarn which is a wool. Kim McBrien Evans designed it and it is also a 3 out of 4.

The landscape sweater called Bayview by Syliva Watts-Cherry is one of the bold designs in this issue. Made of Debbie Bliss/Lovecraft Rialto which is a wool sport yarn, it uses some 9 colors. It is a 3 out of 4 for difficulty like the rest of these. There are easier tops as well in this issue,.

In addition, there are several interviews, an article on linen production, and another on why we should think of inches per stitch instead of the other way around when we ponder gauge, and a travel piece on the Navajo Nation in the southwest. Of course, the usual short pieces on new yarns, fashion trends, etc.
