Pom Pom Quarterly Winter 2018: A Review

Pom Pom Quarterly has published its Winter 2018 issue . Shall we see?





tree of life . Nice sweater. I'm not usually a big fan of tassels, but these tassels add an edgy touch to another plain braided sweater.





ataraxia. I appreciate where this stylist is going with the detailed look of the vest and I like the overall design, but I'm looking at this peplum from the side and don't think it works visually. I'll reduce it to a few inches.





Christabel. These little postcards are very interesting. I love the model's expression: "Damn, I love that cute thing."





storm wood. These gloves have one difference: they are held in place by a circle for the middle finger, rather than the shape of each finger hole. It stays in place pretty well and I prefer the effect. They're like saliva on your hand.





Waybill. Here we have a glimpse of the cover, and the twisted, twisted wires are somewhat extraordinary indeed, reminiscent of the dense bush of the enchanted forest spoken of in fairy tales.





Nimu I'm not so sure about that. The batwing sleeves give the product a whimsical look. Having said that, I have to admit that there are some nice touches and it looks pretty good here, styled on a dress with no competing horizontal stripes.





Nothing like. I'm not entirely happy with how this sweater sits in the front, but it's decent and looks good on the back.





Osmund. There's a lot going on here... This pudding is not only digested with eggs, but also looks like flaxseed.





Overseas. This packaging is very beautiful. The stitching, the identical use of two colors, the luxurious and smooth finish... There are sixteen photos of this scarf on their Ravelry page, which is a lot more than usual for a Ravelry models page. As if photographers would keep photographing them, and I don't blame them.





Walloon wood. I love the contrasting bow effect on this sweater and I can't fault the pom poms but I can't get enough of the shape. The severed arms and the shortened body shape do not work with this professional model either.
