Rowan Magazine 42 Autumn/Winter 2007

No VAT

The Autumn / Winter 2007 edition of Rowan Magazine features handknitting and crochet designs from a whole host of designers including Marie Wallin, Kaffe Fassett, Sarah Hatton, Sarah Dallas, Erika Knight and Leah Sutton to name just a few.

The new Autumn Winter season heralds a focus on the aesthetics of yarns - their texture, beauty and colour. Mohair is the important fibre of the season, as well as loose hand spun type roving yarns which add a home made feel. Inspiration for garment design comes from the return to everything natural with emphasis on the homely, cosy and hand made looks.

Rowan is promoting three stories for Autumn/Winter 2007: Tundra, Highlander and Reflection. Each of the stories is delightfully styled to inspire the knitter and introduces garments which are both beautiful and very wearable.

The new Spring/Summer season is inspired by a strong yearning for simplicity and natural principles. At a time of environmental, economic and political uncertainty, we see fashion returning to nature, honesty and security. To reflect this need for simplicity, Rowan is promoting three stories for Spring 2007; Secret Garden, Medinas & Minarets and Promenade, Each of the stories is simply styled and showcases garments which are both beautiful and easy to wear. This season we also see the introduction of a new yarn within the magazine: `Damask' is a lovely linen and viscose blend and will be available in eight subtle, space dyed shades.
