Vogue Knitting Holiday 2019: A Review

Vogue Knitting has released its 2019 Christmas issue . Let's take a look at glamorous holiday style knitwear, what are we doing?





Model No. 01, Victorian style. This sweater was designed to evoke the women's sweaters of the 1890s, and with its long cuffs and slightly dropped sleeves, I have to admit, it's a nice update to that style while still being totally modern and comfortable to wear.





Boss #02, Marila. Not happy with it. Slight color changes in the main part of the sweater do not suit me - the effect is not attractive and ineffective, and does not look quite right. This would be a design that could be substituted with another yarn choice as I'm sure it could look good with two completely opposite or complementary yarns.





Pattern No. 03, Ocean. I like the overall shot - it's bold and funny - but I'll be brief.





Pattern No. 04, Walabi. Well... er... the necklace works. The dwarf has no sleeves or forehead, and the overall picture is dull and fragmented.





Pattern No. 05, Gibson Girl. As an Edwardian enthusiast, I appreciate the design guide on this. I don't think I can wear a sweater with puff sleeves because I'm the one who has to cut off the top half, but I definitely like to see this piece and these sleeves won't hurt because of their edgy - fitted cuffs.





Pattern number 06, rhombus. This is a fresh and modern take on the diamond pattern.





Pattern No. 07, parallelogram. It's pretty chic, but it's a short length, which isn't the easiest length for most women, and if you're looking to lengthen it, you really need to hone your design skills.





Pattern No. 08, square. This designer has cleverly turned the backside into a design element with the strategic use of floats. The result is a retro scarf that can be used to show off two different looks. I am intrigued and will keep this strategy in mind for Argyle Tame and Cap which are on my 2020 project list.





Pattern number 09, rhombus. Very smart and also portable.





Model No. 10, diamond. This is a great update to the classic Argyle jacket. It would be fun to pick a color style ahead of time, but I would suggest avoiding the yellow and black combo for this as it will look a bit like Charlie Brown.





Model No. 11, openwork scarf. This scarf complements your look more than being warm and practical. He will keep everything.





Model No. 12, Jacinthe sweater. Interesting. This design would be a good candidate for luxury yarn as it is beautiful enough to be worn in everyday life.





Pattern No. 13, Wisteria flower. She is charming and visually appealing, as well as fresh, modern. I just realized that I had spent several minutes looking at her, the lines writhing and wavering before my eyes.





Pattern #14, Ethereal Iris. Very beautiful. I love the combination of angora, lace and pearls, which looks so luxurious, and the pearls were used very sparingly.





Pattern No. 15, La Pivion jacket. It's beautiful, and looking at it more than the direct impression of the pattern, I'm amazed at how comfortable this piece is to wear. It can be paired with a casual dress or a top and trousers, and can be worn top or bottom.





Model No. 16, purple. It is beautiful and I will wear it myself. However, I will change the speed a bit.





Pattern No. 17, lavender shawl. Very nice envelope. tailoring is excellent.





Pattern number 18, Rose petals. Usually, when considering a shell-colored envelope with a sleeve and scaly stitch piping, I tend to joke about mutant mermaids, which comes to mind, but in this case, I can't help but say no. A one-sleeve scarf is a strange idea, but the designer executed it with such incredible craftsmanship that I am amazed at the result. The silhouette is beautiful, the yarn is beautiful, and in fact it is an incredibly comfortable thing, when the end of the scarf is thrown over the shoulder, as in the second photo, the silhouette is quite classic. Amazing.





Checkered sweater. For this task there is knitting with a pattern "from the archive". It originally appeared in the Fall/Winter 1985 issue of Pussy Knitting . It has also been reprinted in a collection of "classic" knitting patterns . It's hard for me to keep up, to leave alone a sweater that can fit many people but belongs to everyone, I guess.
