EEEEEEEKKKKKK!!!!!!
Wow that's awful! The red one is the worst, the the purple sweater with the big asymmetric roped cables up and across the breasts is very close second!

Mmmm....... Yes. I think you're right.

I've been looking at these today:

(If the link doesn't work properly,the 5-ply kits on bobbins.co.uk)

I know that they're beyond my skill/enthusiasm level, but I *really* want to have a go at one of them.

A cable-knit jumpsuit?! Egad.

The magazine cover picture (the head-to-foot red catsuit thing) looks like some sort of alien-transformation effect you might see on the X-Files. :)

But when I clicked on that picture, the 4 sweaters featured in the popup actually looked nice to me. Not saying I'd wear them, especially, but they didn't look horrifying to me.

Hey, you're listening to For the Roses! Cool! How do you like it?

I particularly like how, on the last of the inside pages, they've cleverly placed the model's entire forearm across what I believe to be a cabled waist on that orange thing.
