I am finishing off another design just in time for the photoshoot tomorrow, and I have started work on submissions to Wool People 9, published by the American yarn company Brooklyn Tweed, and to Interweave Knits. The first company accept submissions by e-mail while the second want the swatches and all essential info sent by post, hence it needs to be planned in good time. Here you can see the Wool People 9 Mood Boards and read the Interweave’s Contributor Guidelines and study the Content Submission Form. The magazine Close-Up 18  is one I have ordered from the Scandinavian trend institute called Pej gruppen in Denmark, which usually have a large book stand at the Gave/Gift & Interior Fair at Lillestrøm, outside of Oslo. They had one this August too, but did not have the Knit & Tricot magazine to my dismay, hence I had to order it. I love looking at garment styles, colors and stitch patterns chosen. They help to inspire, to release ideas, and to try out new paths.
