Magknits 2 online

Magknits 2 is online since a few days, and I really like it!
Beau - a man's sweater with interesting details.
Decon - how to spice up a tired sweatshirt with knitted details. I will certainly do something based on this idea!
Magknits has asked its contributors to come up with patterns for a simple black t-shirt, adapted to their own bodies. Donna is perfect for busty curvy girls, Kidsilk is made to fit silky brave kids...
The Chocolate ruffles hood/scarf might be what I need for my morning walks to work when the frost starts to nibble at my ears. For September, I hope that the new multidirectional mohair scarf and a denim jacket will be enough. Really ambitious readers could knit this item in red with white eyelash trimmings for Christmas...

The thing I like about MagKnits is that the patterns are a bit more demanding than Knitty's. Sometimes publishes too many bulky square things, but then I'm not talking about the infamous summer 2004 issue, of course...

  • Dear Jorun! Thanks a lot for the extra Barkarole. Now I can make mittens to match the bah bah hood!

  • Hi Jorun!
    Thanks for telling about the new issue of magknits, I like them too, even though I haven't tried anything yet. I'll definately look into this new issue.
