Scene it?


The new knitting magazine from Interweave is out. Aimed at young, hip, trendy, um, what other catch phrases are out there - they use 'spirited'.
I like the mag. I like it more than the Vogue VK.1, but less than Rebecca.

It has a bunch of patterns & not much to read. There are extra free patterns on their website, and alternate photos. The photos in the magazine are gorgeous and clear. The models - the same as the Interweave Knits, boy am I sick of those girls. Would it kill someone if they used a beautiful fat girl?

Is there anything I'm dying to knit out of it? No. But I find some of the designs inspirational. please no more pom poms, ear flap hats , shrugs & hoods too.

How many knitting magazines are there now?
Vogue Knitting
Knitters
Interweave Knits
VK.1
Knitscene
Knitting UK
Simply Knitting UK
Creative Knitting
Creative Knitting OZ
Yarn OZ
Cast On
Inknitters
Knit N Style (or did that become Creative Knitting?)
Family Circle Knitting (and crochet!)
Family Circle Easy Knitting
Rebecca

Does Rowan count since you can't buy it on the newsstand? I say no.

16 knitting magazines? 200 knitting books in a year?
Wow!
So why can't i find anything I'm dying to knit?
