In This Month´s Issue:

Our October issue offers a new feature called ‘Spotlight on’ which highlights a different knitwear trend every month – direct from the catwalk. This time we focus on sculptural knits and we tell you where you can find inspiring courses, books and patterns and how to put the look together. As usual, you’ll find exclusive designs from your favourite designers such as the charming Greengage jumper by Sian Brown and the Great Outdoors men’s sweater by Pat Menchini. Erika Knight whips up a pair of stylish mittens in her ‘More stash than cash’ feature and Bronwyn Lowenthal, founder of hand knit company Lowie tells of her life, travels and her new book – Head to toe knits. All this as well as news, reviews, events and much, much more.

For your entertainment

There's nothing like a national catastrophe to bring out the warped British sense of humour – and these definitely made me giggle. I give you...Knitted Political Finger Puppets! Or as RUBBISH magazine, whose limited edition finger puppets these are, say, Give politics the finger. Apparently they are guaranteed 'NOT to pull the wool over your eyes'.

It's good to see knitters wielding their needles as political activism tools (I think we can all agree the point here is to mock, rather than admire). Re-enact the election with your own desired outcome...

Good bye Mr Brown

And because I actually live in the Brighton constituency who now have an official Green Party MP...

...Hello Caroline



These limited edition finger puppets are £10 each and are available from www.rubbishmagshop.com
