La mia boutique 01/2012

This magazine is getting so good that I'm thinking of subscribing!
I'm very sorry for all those of you who do not have access to this magazine, I still hope you will enjoy some cute patterns and maybe get some inspirations from them. Please let me know if you like these posts nonetheless. I know I like to read post with McCall's or Butterick patterns although they're not easily available for me.

Probably the main reason why I bought the issue. It reminds me so much of a dress from Dahlia! I really like the gathering on the  shoulders. (Sorry for the blurry scan!)

A "Chanel suit" inspired outfit. Very simple but so chic!

I really don't need another coat in my wardrobe, but these patterns are adorable, each one in its way. The first one is my favorite, but I love the rounded panels of the third pattern.

And lastly, a treat for knitters. This sweater is adorable and after all, one of my propositions for 2012 is to knit a garment (more on that note soon...).

More photos of the technical drawings on my Flickr set.

    1. Yes, it's not a crazy pattern, I think it wouldn't be too hard to draft (although I'm too lazy for that).

  3. Yea I've noticed their patterns getting cooler as well (cooler as in not drafted/ modelled while on acid..). Their mid-2011 stuff was average but now they're really wiping the floor with Burda, Knipmode and often, Patrones too..
    Does the magazine include a pattern for the tights worn with the sweater?

    1. Yes, there has been a huge change in the last 4 months or so!
      Sorry, no pattern for the tights!

  4. Wow, that's a lot of nice looking things from one issue - I especially think the knit sweater looks way better than a lot of magazine knits! I might have to seek this magazine out next time I'm in Italy. Where do they carry it generally?

    1. Every newsstand kiosk carries it and sometimes you can also find it in big supermarkets.
      Do you come to Italy often?

  5. Che bello! Ma questo allora è il numero di Gennaio di "La mia Boutique"?
    Io non lo prendo sempre,perchè lo trovo noioso...ma alle volte ci sono dei modelli davvero belli! *___*
    Anch'io vorrei farmi a maglia un maglione o simile,ma io sono al livello sciarpa ancora...perciò sarà dura! XD

    1. Anche io sono praticamente al livello sciarpa, ma visto che non ho nessuno che mi insegni, ho deciso che imparerò da sola... Speriamo in bene!
