Creative Knitting released the fall 2017 edition. We'll see.

Game with cockpit cover. She is one of those role models in the tormented, depressed, homeschooled mother of seven category. I think I would have liked it more if it wasn't in that goofy tone and covered up with something more appropriate.

Upper booth stationery. She's one of those models in the "depressed, jaded, homeschooled mother of seven with kid spitting on her jacket while she's overwhelmed" category. I know it's a little unfair because I don't like those baggy high waisted shirts because they make me look awfully fat. In an effort to be more objective, I believe that this can be a useful and convenient thing for women with more slender forms. And again, not dyeing the strands in the color of dirty oatmeal can help.

Kesterd sweetened caramelized. This is my idea for a looser and more comfortable jacket than the previous two. They are flattering, have attention-grabbing details and fittings, sit freely without burdening the wearer with excess material.

Eli Top. It's very cute and elegant, but I'll fix sagging shoulders.

Ipanema. Always an elegant dress code, this wrap cardigan accentuates the natural waist and bust line. I can't say that I agree with all of this. Wrap jackets and dresses have an undeserved reputation in the fashion world for being easy to wear and fun to wear. I have never had a drapery that fits me - cutting or fitting is always a mistake and it is my duty to keep them in place so that too many of my pieces are not on display. This draped jacket doesn't seem to fit the model. They look bulky and out of place, and the edges of the hem and sleeves look unfinished.

Make me blush, I like it better, it has nice detailing on the cuffs, but I'll tweak the fit a bit.

black and striped. It has an unattractive shape and a droopy, patchy appearance.

block the party. It's very edgy and well cut, although I think I'll skip the white edging around the edges of the sleeves or maybe go the other way and add a three color cuff.

dancer. Says the model's publicist: "Shiny yarn lends flair and elegance to this elegant tote bag, embellished with whimsical intarsia." It looks more like a small cushion on the couch than the evening bag I wear with black gloves and pearls. If I were knitting an evening bag, I would use fine silk thread and not include a lot of bulky details, instead of knitting something that makes me feel like I have to get off the couch at night.
