I love Mercury -- and was not at all surprised to see it was by Heather Dixon. Great work Heather!!
Congratulations! Came across you guys on Ravelry. Your patterns really stand out- very exciting.
My favourite is Cadmium, with Peekamoose and Cobalt sharing second place.
Keep 'em coming!
Congrats! I love mercury!!
I can't wait to see the full magazine! I can't view it on my iPad (boo) but so far I really like Willow!
I lover these patterns! I am a new knitter and cannot wait to see your magazine blossom! Congrats! I do love the red and white scarf!
Congratulations on the launch of your new magazine and on the beautiful patterns in this first issue! That makes for a double celebration!
You did a great job! I love so many patterns of this issue I'm already looking forward for the next one.
I like Sweet meadows and Egeria (I would knit it with a longer body), Calypso (very nice detail in the back) and Rhodium. I can't make a decision which one I'll knit first. Maybe Rhodium, or maybe Sweet Meadows? :-)
Love the patterns, particularly cobalt and chromium...beautiful website too
OMG...one great pattern after the next! Congratulations on a STUNNING magazine!!! I'd be hard-pressed to choose my favorite pattern but the ones that really caught my attention are cobalt, platinum, chromium and egeria.
Really looking forward to your future issues!!!
Wonderful new magazine! I am really taken by the Zinc necklace - that surprises me but it is my favorite pattern. I'm usually a sweater girl and more of the casual type so you've pulled me out of my typical "box" :)
I love to sew but, I love to knit too......well, just let me create and I am happy. I am happy to have found your web site too!
I love your new magazine. I especially like the the red and white made with KnitPicks fingering weight yarn.
Great magazine, full of LOTS of patterns I'd like to try. I'm torn between Calypso and Thetis as my faves. Would also like to try the Orea bag.
Fantastic job on the magazine. It's hard to pick just one pattern as a favorite, but love Arethusa.
Congratulations on the debut of your beautiful magazine. Love, love, love the willow dress!!
Favorite is OREA - lovely little purse. I could make that...I know I could.
Love the product reviews and the interview with Amy. Outstanding writing to go along with the great patterns.
Beautiful work ClothesHorse.
looks awesome! congrats on an amazing magazine! i love the palladium and mercury is just about the coolest thing ever!
I think this is a fantastic idea! I love all the patterns but I think Orea is something I would love to make for myself. It looks so soft and yummy! Best wishes for the next issue. :-)
Lots of great patterns to choose from. I'm torn between Thetis and Chromium as my faves. I'm so impressed by the whole thing and LOVE the feature on Yarn Collage! Hope you keep doing bits on smaller yarn companies.
Wishing you lots of success with your new magazine! My favorite is the Cobalt. Love that all of the patterns are in fashion now:)
