Amen, Creative Knitting! 12 plus-size patterns - more than any magazine I’ve featured here!

I picked this magazine up in Borders bookstore the week before last but you may be able to find a copy online.

Here are the size details on the patterns and links to preview photos on their site:

Zigzag Lace Top
Sized up to 2X or 50″ finished chest measurement
A cute lace sweater with cropped, rolled hem in a contrasting color. I would, of course, make it longer.

Inspired by Monet
Up to 3X or 56″ finished chest measurement
V-neck top with 3/4 sleeves and openwork rib pattern.

Channeling Chanel Jacket

Up to 2X or 52″ finished chest measurement
A tweedy pink Chanel-style jacket

Soft Cord-Trimmed Jacket
Up to XL or 48″ finished chest measurement
You can’t tell from the photo - this is a short jacket hitting at the waist, as is the Chanel jacket.

Casual Lace Tunic
Up to 2X or 66″ finished chest measurement
A sleeveless lace tunic.

Weekender Sweater
Up to 2X or 54″ finished chest measurement
This one does not pass my “does it make the model look larger?” test. I know that model is a stick figure but the crazy stripes make her look boxy. But I like the shape of this sweater. I’m thinking it might be nice in a solid color.

Lilac & Lace
Up to 3X or 56″ finished chest measurement
This lace tank with the criss-cross in front is too cute!

Spring is in the Air Vest
Up to 2X or 48″ finished chest measurement (it hangs open in the middle)
Tie-at-the-top lacy vest

Waterfall Vest
Up to 3X or 57 3/4″ finished chest measurement
I’m not a vest person but I’m beginning to warm up to this vest. It’s different.

Sublime Camisole
Up to XL or 52″ finished chest measurement
This ribbed camisole with the crocheted straps is cute. Now where do you hide bra straps under that?

Perfectly Vested - Men’s Vest
Up to 2X or 57″ finished chest measurement
Hey, something for the men! Not too crazy about the salmon color, though. My husband said “please don’t ever make that for me,” but he’s not really a vest kinda guy. We’re so un-vesty around here!

For Me & My Mom
Mom’s cropped long-sleeve sweater up to 2X or 47″ finished chest measurement.
This is a cute mother-daughter sweater pair.
