Summer Knitty is up.

What do you think? (http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEsummer07/index.html)

I'm not sure about this issue, though summer patterns are always tricky, but the article about socks for diabetic feet is interesting. Just unfortunate that my own personal diabetic also has a severe wool allergy. :(

Well I like the sweet pea (http://knitty.com/ISSUEsummer07/PATTsweetpea.html)socks and Askew (http://knitty.com/ISSUEsummer07/PATTaskew.html) (but not in Noro silk garden ooo that would itch)

No Lisa, Silk Garden is soft and not at all itchy (imho). Now, Kureyon is a different matter....:D

I rather like the stitch patterns on some of the shorter socks, though they'd need to be knit longer for me. Grrr is rather sweet. ZinZin and Coachella are pretty. Sophie looks like someone had an unfortunate accident with a pair of scissors.

The patterns on the socks are ok this time and I like tangerine twist (but in a different colour!) could be plenty to keep me going if I didn't already have a list as long as my arm :)

Grow With Me and Chapeau Marnier are my picks from the issue. None of the women's tops are screaming at me to make them, though I'm quite taken with the shapes of Coachella and Zinzin. And I think I will be making Grrr because it is just brilliant.

Nah Ive knitted with it and wouldnt want it directly next to my skin:o Maybe it softens up with washing?

I think I might try "grow with me" - pretty.

I like absolutely nubbin in this issue :(

Not an issue for me either I'm afraid which is a shame because I usually look forward to Knitty and find at least 5 things I wanna make. Not impressed with any of them really. I like the stitch patterns on the socks but not enough to make them.
