Yet it's so easy for us to overlook because we all seem to take Knipmode for granted. For me writing reviews is a way to look more thoroughly at the offerings. Now to find time to use all these patterns!Mariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05144010556887549717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9173179849477212303.post-30932122836030651582017-07-26T19:29:34.481+02:002017-07-26T19:29:34.481+02:00I have a subscription on Knipmode, so I get it any...I have a subscription on Knipmode, so I get it anyway 😁 but I still like to read your reviews. Because of your #knipmodechallenge I started to look more at my magazines and try to really make some of the patterns...but as you know I didn't manage to keep the challenge. Something I wonder everytime I see an interesting pattern in the Knip; if it was a pattern from an indie company everybody would have been all WOW but beeing in the magazine is just "gewoon".In the August issue they have that red jacket, also made in a sleevles dress, what an interesting pattern...need to think about a fabric for the dress.I do think that "designer" feature is not so interesting...and for some people beeing a Pdf is also a big no , not for me ...but the designs are so not inspiring is not really worthing my paper:)Sorry for the long message, glad you liked my dress.Cameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08523431080535273007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9173179849477212303.post-74840654895506535272017-07-23T15:22:37.673+02:002017-07-23T15:22:37.673+02:00Thanks, Marjorie.

I agree it could look nice in a different fabric, maybe with 3/4 sleeves and nice jewellery.

You will definitely not find me in one of those slip dresses, especially with sneakers! What a comical look. The poor MOB would look much happier in a pale pink or mint green color, and in a dress rather than a suit. Anyway, fun to see these styles and selections.

I thought the beige mother of the bride suit was really sad because the technical drawing shows the jacket has very interesting design features that are completely lost in that fabric.Liznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9173179849477212303.post-66701884550261155652017-07-20T17:32:41.450+02:002017-07-20T17:32:41.450+02:00i love to read reviews of pattern magazines, so if...i love to read reviews of pattern magazines, so if it's not too much trouble please do them! although one of these days I would like to try a KnipMode pattern - so your posts may tempt me :)Beth (SunnyGal Studio)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08891740887743925587noreply@blogger.com
