New Knitty!

Fall Knitty! Always an exciting time. (Though I have to admit, this one doesn't quite excite me as much as last year's, I wonder why... oh yes, the vanity factor might have had something to do with it!)

My favourites? Cookie A's Clandestine socks are pretty - I love that stitch pattern. Would look lovely in Claudia fingering I think. Kernel has made it straight into my queue, I've been longing to make something in Mini Maiden; the only question now is which colour? Ebony? Ruby? Blackberry? I'm intrigued to see whether the low-contrast variegations of the Blackberry would work... And I think Ruby Red would be a great choice for Fleece Artist Merino 2/6.

Finally, Colonnade is a satisfyingly different shawl shape - and I love the little toggle that turns it into a cape. I can definitely see a spot for this in my wardrobe. Knit in River, or for real indulgence, perhaps in Grande Godiva - yummy!
