ooo, that looks nifty
my copy of Interweave Knits, Autumn 2009 arrived yesterday. I'm not thrilled with most of the projects, since there seem to be a lot of cropped-waists and shaping that is flattering to the smaller women. The Scoop Pullover, with its welted bust, is a particularly noticeable offender, from my perspective.
However, the cover sweater is really pretty, the Farmer's Market Cardigan has kangaroo pockets *and* darts, and the Every Way Wrap is reversible and can be a wrap, srhug, vest,or shawl-collared cardigan depending on how it is buttoned.
But the best pattern in my opinion is the Bandelier Socks -- I am really tempted to make them, especially since the pattern does have notes on how to lengthen them appropriately...
