Knitting Magazines - What are best for beginners?

Knitting magazines offer so much for both beginning and experienced knitters. I can learn so much just by looking at one magazine. For example, I learn about different knitting techniques, where to find good and affordable yarn, how to care for yarn and many more tips and tricks from experienced knitters.

Another thing I like about these magazines is that they have so many great patterns and you can choose the level that suites you. I can spent less than $6.00 and get about 10 or more patterns rather than pay for $ 5-8 dollars for a single pattern.

Vogue Magazine was my first pattern magazine I bought in 1993. I made my first sweater using one of its patterns. I found that Vogue has better designs and more fashionable patterns than many other magazines. It usually famous for lady tops such as sweaters and cardigans I guess it just depends on what you're looking for.

I don't even know how many magazines I have today, I still keep them all. I like to go through them once in a while to look for a pattern for my new project.

Now a day, there are so many knitting magazines in the market. You can easily find them in most of the major book stores. The other days I stopped by at Barns & Nobles and I just couldn't believed how many variety of craft magazines there are. I was really stuck there for a long time.

My Favorite Knitting Magazines

Here are some of my favorite magazines that I find very helpful.

For me knitting magazines are not just for knitting. I enjoy looking at photos and reading articles as well. So next time when you get a chance to visit a book store, take some time browsing through some of these magazines. Think about what you'd like to knit and what your skill level is. Most of the magazines I mentioned above have patters in basically every skills you need. In fact, there tend to be more available in easy and intermediate levels than the advanced one.
