Vogue knitting wonât refund me!
Placed a $200 order for multiple magazines from 1995-2018. There were a few out of stock apparently and the website wasnât updated. I wasnât refunded for the ones I didnât receive. Iâve been contacting their customer service and finally got a response after 2 weeks. they said they tried to send it again but I still havenât been refunded after weeks!
Beware when buying from Vogue knitting.

Straight needles vs circular
I'm planning on knitting a children's intarsia sweater and was wondering if there was any sort of advantage to knitting on straight needles vs using circular (which I use for almost all of my modern knitting, even not in the round stuff).đ¤

Finished the 1937 Twinset yesterday
I'll get better pics when it's not so terribly windy. The colour is emerald green and so pretty. Thanks Bex for the pattern. Yarn used is 3 ply New Zealand wool which I got in a sale for just NZ$50 and I have 381 grams left.

"Tennis shirt" probably 1930s
I found the pattern on tumblr but there's unfortunately no instructions for the sleeves, collar or placket. Im not super happy with the collar but considering I haven't been knitting for all that long and I had to make it up, Im still pretty happy with it!
