I heard people are having trouble subscribing online. Has anybody else seen this mag? Opinions?

Save yourself the work and the bulky seams and just knit it all in a big piece). Interweave knits I read as soon as it came in--classic patterns, well-constructed, and the info articles were great. I never personally subscribed, b/c I've got way too many patterns as is, but I would recommend Interweave.

I've bought a couple of one-off issues of other magazines, but pretty much only when I really want to make a pattern that I find on Rav. I'm impressed by the articles in IK, though, and I'll definitely re-up that subscription whenever it comes due.

IK would have to be my next fav.

I do use the patterns that are in them, and mix/match the patterns also!

Frankly there's enough freebies on the web.
