IK just seems to be an expert in making the colors washed out.

Strobilus has potential, but I just don't see me wearing it. I don't like the cover "coat" at all; it's wearing the model instead of the other way round. I think I'd like the Pembroke Wrap if it was a worsted or DK weight. In Bulky it just looks like she put an afghan round her neck!
