Cast On has released their Winter 2018/2019 issue. Let's have a look at it, shall we?
A Leaf Unfurled. What a lovely, polished cowl.
Almost Argyle Sweater. This one has a playful, fun concept, and would be a good way to use up some small amounts of yarn.
Austin. Love the "threaded ribbon" effect of the dash and dot pattern.
Avila Breeze. This one has attractive stitchwork and a rather elegant look to it.
Book of Kells Sweater. I'm always an easy sell on Celtic designs. I think I would reposition the decorative panel a few inches to the south, though.
Cliffs of Moher Shawl. Such great texture.
Easy-Peasy Cabled Fingerless Mitts. Classic cabled mitts.
Fleur-de-Lis Cowl. Not such a fan of this one, but then the colour scheme isn't doing anything for it.
Gnome Hat. Cute children's hat. I'd be tempted to put a fake beard on the kid too, but then that's me.
Harmonious Echo. Classic cabled pullover.
Heart Sweater. This is rather girlish and fetching, but it does deserve a more fun colour.
Horizons Top. This has a seventies vibe to it, but not in a good way. Maybe I'd like it better in another colourway?
Incan Headband. I'm not sure how many people could carry off this look.
Kim and Greer. Fun concept, but those flowers aren't rendered all that well -- they look a little spindly and flattened.
Megane Hat. That's a eye-catching effect.
Megane Mittens. These and the hat above would make a nice set.
Minuet Shawl. Classic lace shawl.
Solomon's Island Cardigan. Not bad, though I'd recommend another colour. Any other colour, for that matter.
Summer Breeze. This has an awkwardly proportioned look to it.
Swedish Block Scarf. Simple, attractive and wearable.
Therese Flip Doll. I have a bit of a thing for topsy-turvy dolls, but not for this particular one, which looks a little cobbled together.
Thrummed Booties. Very comfy. It always makes me smile that thrumming looks like little hearts.
Warm Things. Another pair of classic cabled mitts.
Wasp Wing Cardigan Redux. Some beautiful lacy stitchwork in this one.
Agreeing with Correll that the one cardigan looks like a bathrobe. The dolls look like a knit version of the crocheted toiletpaper covers we all know and love.
