This magazine is about 6 x 8" (approx). It's hip, it's now, it's stuff that the young ladies are into. Lots of furry stuff. Flowers are the big thing these days and there are knitted flowers that are so simple, yet I'd never have thought of it myself. Really creative, innovative and kitschy.
There is definitely something for everyone in this magazine. Big bulky knit sweaters, fingerless gloves, a neck gaiter, scarves, capelets, legwarmers and even a knitted clock! There are some crocheted items too!
What I love most about this magazine, besides the "fun" it brings to knitting is the cool products they show. Like find funky products from Purl (be sure to check out their article "KNITTING IS THE NEW YOGA: Move Over Grandma, Knitting is the New Rock 'n Roll") (I want their "Knitters Have Balls" tank).
Another featured product is "Feet First". The American Red Cross has created a knitting kit to commemorate the original Serviceman's Socks. Check it out at Red Cross.
The BagSmith will really have you in knots. woolybully will leave you screaming for more!
the wool shack has beaded row-counter bracelets!
This magazine is packed with stuff like this. I actually love reading the articles too. Normally, I skip all the articles and just look at the juicy photos and get right into the patterns. This magazine is a must read from cover-to-cover. My favourite is "Why Knitting is Sexy" by Ian Kerner, Ph.D. who is a sex therapist and author. It's a must read.
