Noro Magazine Issue 11: A Review

In today's article, we will look at issue 11 of Noro magazine . Before anyone realizes this is the Fall/Winter 2017 issue, yes, I got to this review pretty late because I neglected my blog post, but better late than never, and now I'm almost spreading my debt to the revision.





Model № 01, artificial sweater with two wings. I like this better. As we can see from the style here, it will make a nice top layer in cooler weather. I can't help but think that long sleeves would be more flattering, but if you make them longer, make sure to snug them up a bit.





Model № 02, textured bladder card. I think it will make me feel like I'm holding a hammock.





Model № 03, Cardi with diamond-shaped texture. Another good ball. I like the retro feel of the cut and the beautiful texture of the diamond pattern.





Model № 04, trapeze vest. I like the sleeves and bust on this dress, but the hips have a lot of extra fabric. This very tall and slender model tries hard to make it work, but it still fails at all.





Model № 05, elbow length cardigan. Very comfortable to wear. I'm not a big fan of an open-front sweater, but it suits me very well.





Model № 06, long sweater on the ribs. It's so voluminous that it looks more like a jacket than a sweater, but it fits just as well and it's a very pretty yarn.





Model № 07, scarf with a rhombus. A very attractive scarf and it is definitely a "Noro style" item.





Model nº 08, marble hood. Interesting texture and color of this hood.





Model № 09, Balaclava / Cape Bryosh. cute cape, simple but not boring. The colors are so attractive.





Template № 10, Infinity Cover. I like the embroidery there. This is a great choice for this thread.





models no. 11, a quilt with stars. So beautiful and fun.





Model № 12, poncho with fringes. It looks like a rug with a hole in the center.





Model № 13, striped poncho. I like the string on this, but the design makes it look like a tied bath mattress.





Model № 14, poncho with fringes. This is a rug with a fork.





Model 15, cape and hand warmers. I like the cape, but not the warmest, and I don't like the cape/warmer combination either. After all, if you had to warm up your chest and arms, wouldn't you wear a sweater?





Model № 16, one-button coat. Simple and portable.





Model № 17, Ruan kimono. This one looks like an Afghan. You call me old-fashioned, but I firmly believe that clothing design should look like clothing , approach and please the owner , and not present itself as something that looks best on the sofa or armchair.





Model № 18. Sweater with origami collar. This collar works separately and I really like the concept of a hood made in combination with a sweater that can then be worn together or separately. I like both the hood and the sweater. The hood has an interesting architectural look and the yarns in this sweater are very beautiful.





Model № 19, large sweater. I like the vest, but not much.





Motif № 20. The upper part is decorated with stripes. I like the design in general, these intersections look interesting, but again, it would be much more attractive if they coincided . The pattern turns the body backwards so that all the extra fabric hangs behind, and how often does a person stand like that in real life?





Model No. 21, jacket. I like the threads used here, but not the design. The jacket looks stark and unfinished, like a starter project, and these lace-up details look tough.





Model № 22, V-neck sweater It's not scary, but it's not wonderful. It doesn't seem to fit very well, and while the slanted design creates an interesting effect in terms of changing the direction of the thread strips by 90 degrees, the cape itself looks unattractive and awkward.





Model № 23, pencil background. I like this one and would love to do it the way it is here, with a simple sweater and tights that fit, as the bottom creates the necessary visual interest for the dress.





Model № 24, sweater with a v-neck. I like the yarn, similar to the pattern with Monet's water lilies, but I'd adjust those shoulders and adjust the fit or just go with a different, more refined sweater pattern.





Model № 25, poncho top. It is another large piece, but in fact its shape is enough to hold it well.





Model № 26. Sleeveless tunic. There were great details - I like this wraparound effect on the collar, the striped edges and the seam line on the front and pockets - but the fit could have been a lot better. This is a piece that should be wide, but I would have preferred a size larger than what the owner needed and no more, and I made these arm holes much smaller.





Model № 27, sewn carcass. These crochet "cuffs" are quite interesting in terms of design, with their floral crochet effect contrasting with the ribs, but I couldn't help but wish they were part of a sweater.





Model № 28, short line scarf. Very attractive scarf. The play of colors and the play of width go well together.





Model № 29, square sweater. It's very nice and the shape is pretty good, but I think I'd add two more buttons to the top because it seems to "barely hold together" with just one.





Model № 30, oblique miniskirt. This skirt has the look of a "restored Afghan" and, what is worse, it seems to be made with an Afghan scarf that cannot be changed.





Model № 31, asymmetrical striped sweater. There are beautiful details and the design looks good, but I have some doubts about the body lines that I can't properly consider in this affordable photo.





Model № 32, sweater-tunic. Attractive design overall, but would have changed the fit.





Model № 33, textured striped hats. Nice hat. The fibers are very pretty.





Model № 34, oversized asymmetrical sweater. Oh God. The cut, the edge, the depth of the armhole... the neckline and the threads are attractive, but the shape and size must be taken care of.





Model № 35, single jersey. When mentioning “simple” as a template descriptor, the simplicity should indicate that there isn't as much detail, not that the stylist hasn't put enough effort into designing the necklace to fit.





Model № 36, vest with ribs and ribs. The embroidery is fine and the threading is fine, but these jackets had to be fitted along the collar, hem, armholes, and front trim.





Model № 37, scarf with ribs. It's almost impossible to go wrong with a classic striped scarf and it's a great way to show off a beautiful colorful yarn.





Model № 38, side hat. I like the yarn this hat is made of, but not the shape or how straight it is. If I were to use this, I think my name is Tappity, Fifo, or Jinx and I have to live in a tree and make a living off cookies.





Model № 39, V-neck sweater Not bad. Nothing special about it, but it holds up, has a good shape and is wearable.





Model № 40, comfortable whim. These capri pants remind me of the episode "The Client Is Always Dead," in which teenaged Claire and her best friend Parker enjoy magic mushrooms and drunken stitches. Usually the sarcastic Claire, who always gets sentimental when she wakes up, sews a pair of culottes with crazy fringes of fabric and presents them to her mother, Ruth, with warm hugs and declarations of love. Ruth, who is always happy for every expression of love from her children, proudly wears panties the next day, which only exacerbates the suffering caused by her daughter's "mushroom hangover". I mean, although I wish I could remember that scene... I wouldn't have sewn or worn these pants if I hadn't loved the magic mushroom or something.
