Interweave Knits - Spring 2011

As always, Interweave Knits does not disappoint!  Here are a few things from the latest issue that caught my eye.

En Pointe Pullover designed by Alice Tang - I love the Mobius like front of this pullover - yarn used in the pattern is Louet KidLin Lace Weight (49% linen, 35% kid mohair, and 16% nylon)

Swirl Crop Jacket designed by Andrea Babb - The ruffle on this cute jacket is just enough to be feminine without going over the top - yarn used in the pattern is Fibra Natura Flax (100% linen)

Curvy Squares Tee designed by Bonnie Paul - Entrelac with a kick - the squares grow and shrink in size, unlike traditional entrelac! Yarn used in the pattern is Plymouth Yarn Mushishi (95% wool, 5% silk)

Lots more great patterns and articles, including Fearless Fair Isle Knitting by Mary Jane Mucklestone.
