Lovely Azalea Sweater!
As a matter of fact, I live in the city of Gent, Belgium, which is quite famous for its Azalea Exhibition every 5 years:

There exist also varities of Azalea developed in Ghent in the 19th century: http://www.hardegentse.be/pages/home.htm

Thank you for the information on the Japanese knitting magazines.
