“Off Season” Garments

Early last week, I took an informal poll over on the Ravelry Popknits group (if you haven’t joined yet, please do!) to see if there was interest in publishing patterns that were off-season (as in, off the Northern Hemisphere’s seasons.) I’m happy to say that poll results showed that 96% of people were definitely interested in seeing a few off-season garments per issue which means that you may submit any vintage inspired pattern at any time, regardless of its wearability for a particular season. I hope to keep Popknits interesting for knitters across the globe and this is one way that will happen.

I look forward to seeing what you all submit! Only a little over a month left before the June 15th submission deadline. If you haven’t contacted me yet about a submission proposal, feel free to use the contact form to get in touch. Otherwise, submit when you have something ready to go. Thanks!

I love “off season” patterns since I usually knit my winter stuff during the summer. When I knit it during the winter, it’s never done in time to wear it that year. smile

About Popknits

Over the past few years, knitting vintage items has become popular again. Whether the item is a revamped sweater from the pages of Vogue Knitting 1955 or a new take on doily patterns as shawls, vintage knitting is taking a modern turn. Inspired by the thrift store finds sitting on our bookshelves, Popknits challenges you to take a new look at all things that have come before.
