Customer Reviews of Interweave Knits

Beautiful magazine, skews towards more experienced knitters
I originally subscribed to Interweave Knits as a beginning knitter, and found the projects too advanced for me (not to mention the yarn too expensive, and I didn't have the confidence to make substitutions). Three years later, I'm back for more now that I have more experience under my belt! It's a beautifully photographed magazine, the layouts are excellent, the articles insightful and the instructions first-rate. <

>I don't recommend this magazine for beginning knitters who want to find patterns to knit right away (unless they're knitting prodigies). There may be some basic patterns, but they're few and far between in my experience. Also, what they consider "easy" isn't what I would have considered "easy" as a beginner, but perhaps I was a slow learner! <

>I loved the most recent fall '07 issue, and found two patterns right away that I'm dying to knit. I agree with the other reviewers about the ads--this is a magazine where the ads actually add to the magazine, not detract from it. <

>I think it's a good idea to take a look inside the magazine prior to subscribing, at the newsstand or library, to be sure it's a good match, style-wise. Another good idea is to check out their website, Knitting Daily. You can get a bunch of free patterns, most of which have been featured in their magazine over the last few years. You can get a good feel for the magazine's offerings and if they appeal to you. You have to sign up to be a member of Knitting Daily, but it's free and I think it's definitely worth it (you don't have to be a subscriber to join).

Basic Toolbag Mag
All knitters need this subscription. The patterns are not the most modern. But the articles, advertisements, and staff are in the midst of 'what's happening now' in knitting. The magazine has a website with additional patterns and a 'knitting daily' newsletter. This site and the community surrounding the publication keep you challenged, interested, and supported whether you are a hobby knitter or a dyed-in-the wool knit-addict like me.

Classic patterns, facinating reading!
Most knitting mags are full of synthetic looking projects that are often stuck in the 80s. <
> <
>While not every project appeals to me (I usually find 3 or 4 each issue), all are high quality, classy, and call for high quality fibers. <
> <
>What I am just begining to notice are the interesting articles. Focusing on the art and history of knitting, it is the Smithsonian of knitting! <
> <
>Since reading some of these articles, I have a new respect for knitters of the past, and a new pride in my work today. <
> <
>A must for any serious knitter!
