Weirdly enough, before I got a subscription, I loved everything in the magazine. Now, I like one or two things from it and I'm not sure I would knit any of them. At any rate, hilarious review.

Next, where in this hemisphere is it cold enough in the freaking SUMMER to wear a sweater? I kind of understand the hood thing with a cover-up - presumably, you've been in water, and your hair looks like crap, so you need something to cover it up. <BR/>As for sizing, we all know that Vogue still lives in that weird world where the "normal" size is 0 and "fat" is a freakin 4. It's issues like this that keep me from getting a subscription.debsnmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17023150694076405052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-79024845132284204402007-03-26T10:51:00.000-05:002007-03-26T10:51:00.000-05:00I think 31 would be great with real sleeves, or ev...I think 31 would be great with real sleeves, or even what's there with some kind of finished edge, like ribbing to match the other edges.
