Rowan Knitting & Crochet Magazine 62: A Review, Part 2
Today we take a look at the second half of the Rowan Knitting & Crochet Magazine 62 design, having reviewed the first half three days ago.
Classic Bradshaw collar with drawstring.
Wills : I love the details on this coat, the back looks pretty crisp but the front looks rough and the sleeves look silly.
Midnight. Nice shape and texture, but I think I'll do it in a mixed thread because it needs some visual interest.
Wet scarf. I rarely see a crochet scarf that I really like, but I really like it with a beautiful crochet effect.
Smoke is a refreshing take on the classic Light Island Yoke sweater, it fits well and I love the subtle neutral color.
Midnight hood and demat . What I love the most is that it can be worn alone or as a layer, and I love the versatility of a hoodie and sweater concept that should be mine. Though I would wear a proper belt, not a leather cord or chain or whatever around the model's waist.
Almond. The texture is great, the colors are beautiful, but this is not a cardigan like the sleeves of an Afghan blanket.
Fernley. That's very beautiful. I also love pumps, although I would make them a little smaller.
Japi Iluna. This is a great way to add some flair to your everyday look.
Oxton. Nice classic piece.
Very nice design for the leaves of GranSamur and Diamond Island, although I did it in a different color scheme. This combination of dark blue and pale blue is popular with designers, but for some reason it never suits me - visually and non-key is a little scary.
The delay is very simple, but quite portable.
Buttrick. This is usually good, but in the form of a flattering box, it does not benefit this professional model. I usually recommend adding a waist line, but in this case it can be difficult to do as the thread pattern is very tight, so I'll probably give this design.
Craftsman It seems that the designer tried to keep the material very simple by adding random lacquer on the sleeves, and like most randomly added design elements, it doesn't serve its purpose.
Mar coat with a very attractive mosaic print.
Sunset. Nice looking cardigan. The length can be hard to wear but looks great on a dress.
Bilby. It's such an intimidating and stunning sight that even the model is suddenly tempted to sit in a dark room, wrap herself in a blanket and immediately eat from a marshmallow plate.
Remember. Not bad, although these long, tight cardigans are often difficult to wear. However, this is an easy fix - make the length suitable for anyone who wants to use it.
Thackeray scarf. The hat that comes with this scarf appeared in the first part of this review and I love this scarf just the same. It would be nice to wrap it in a tube so as not to be mistaken.
