Knit a summer wardrobe in DMC cotton with Magic Crochet Number 4 — Special DMC!

Despite the magazine title, this 1983 French special is a hand-knit collection: striped pullovers, gilets, camisoles, fairisle jumpers, and cardigans in Pearl Cotton, Brilliant, Cebelia, and Soft Knitting Twist. Average-size garments use stocking stitch, fairisle, cables, and embroidered cherries or flowers.

Featured designs include:

• White sweater with stripes and embroidered cherries (cover)
• White gilet with pink and gray stripes and white top with pink vertical stripes
• Yellow jumper with green stripes and blue-and-pink fairisle
• Jumper with rainbow and clouds in fairisle
• Sweater with zigzags in mauve and white gilet with colored embroidery
• Pink cardigan with short sleeves and yellow cardigan with short sleeves and pink-and-gray fairisle
• Grey top with diamond pattern, ecru sweater with cables, and Bordeaux cardigan (back cover)

A vintage Magic Crochet special for collectors of early-1980s DMC knitwear—not thread-lace doilies.
