Ronaldsay from Hebridean By Lisa Richardson Using Wool Cotton Ruby from Essentials By Marie Wallin Using Kid Classic 6 - July 2012 Knitting & Crochet Magazine 52 Preview Heritage knitwear dominates Autumn Winter 2012, with warmth, security and functionality all playing leading roles. Alongside this, bright colourwork and patterning are key, creating a new take on the traditional. Different colour mixes contour the body silhouette, emphasising and exaggerating their effect. Uncomplicated yet modern shapes are key, with fringing, intarsia, cabling and structured texturing all important. These trends are reflected in the following three design stories: North Sea North Sea is a celebration of British historic knitting with Guernsey, Aran and cable stitches being used with a contemporary twist. Traditional stitches are exaggerated and manipulated to create a unique look, which combines perfectly with colour blocks and mixes. Hebridean Hebridean tells the story of Fair Isle and Nordic pattern, reworked, magnified and rearranged to create an electric yet casual collection. Inspired by the atmospheric landscape of Scotland, the collection is coloured in rustic greens, rusts and rich earthy tones. Essentials Essentials translates key trends into simplified, wearable pieces. Predominantly a plain knitted and solid coloured collection, the emphasis is on shape, of fitted knits, cropped sweaters, fringing and mohair effects are all present.
