Advantages: A magazine filled with patterns
Disadvantages: none
Simply Knitting is a great magazine for knitters , it costs £3.99 and comes out once a month. I usually buy Simply knitting from either Tesco`s or Asda`s. The magazine is packed with knitting patterns for the whole family , last month they had a pattern for a christmas tree and decorations by the designer Alan dart I really love his patterns!
You will also find a lot of hints and tips on how to improve your knitting skills and there is a knitting library which shows lots of different stitches , very handy if you are fed up with doing boring stocking stitch!
There is also a question and answer page which is very good as sometimes it gives you ideas and answers to your own question.
There are also pages for knitting stockists some of whom have web pages which I tend to look at a lot.
This magazine is for beginners through to experts , i have been knitting for nearly 30 years and I still have not learnt everything about knitting.
Summary: Go buy this magazine !

- 29/10/08 A little more detail on the individual articles would be good, also are the patterns easy to follow or for more expert knitters. Is the magazine well written and put together. Lots of personal opinion on the magazine is always helpful i.e what parts you like and flick straight to, and what parts you dislike or don't read. |

- 14/10/08 I get this and love it. If you subscribe, it is much cheaper, but at 3.99, it is still a bargain. And you're right about Alan Dart's stuff. I've got his advent tree in front of me - I have loads of requests from people to knit stuff for them! |
