With every new issue of Interweave Knits there will be a pattern that catches my eye because it's so original and cleverly constructed (like this issue's Fitted Dolman or Fall 2004's Sideways Spencer) and inevitably it's by Annie Modesitt. It's not always something I could imagine wearing, but I always want to knit it just because it's so cool looking and I wanna see how it's made.

Last summer, her bright, brilliant little tea set inspired a tea party. Thanks, Annie!
