KitsunekoChan Edit: also, I have the feeling they want models that are made from the yarns of their sponsor's. So maybe, if it was in Merino wool or whatever.. rolleyes
Ehhhh....I disagree and agree. I do a lot of browsing on knitty and I don't think the patterns favor any particular brand of yarn...or at least any particular brand of yarn that is advertized on knitty. However they DO tend to favor yarns you can't find in a Michael's, Rag-Shop or Wal-Mart. You'd have to check out an independently owned store or order online from a shop that may or may not be sponsering knitty. But you don't have to order from the shops advertized on Knitty (unless it's a yarn like Elann or Knitpicks since they make their own exclusive brand).
But I do agree with this...
Quote: So maybe, if it was in Merino wool or whatever.
Nothing to really say about merino specifically. But, yes, it does need to be made in a yarn that will let the article of clothing be functional.
Quote: It ended up too bulky, really. I didnt have the money for cotton yarn at the time, so I used acrylic and i sweat in it. Oh well, next time.
I think that's that is a significant reason as to why it was rejected. It's summer wear and it does look really nice...but it can't function as summer wear because of what it was made from and you've experianced that first-hand. If you ever get the opportunity (argh...cotton does cost so much ;_; ), you should try to remake the top in cotton (or whatever else you think would work), see if it is wearable and take clearer photos of yourself. It should dramatically increase your chances. The design itself looks awesome. smile
And good luck with your dress! biggrin
