I always have trouble finding just the right magazine. The same usually goes for books, too, which is why many times I go for magazines – they tend to have the latest trends and are less of a hit on the wallet. Sometimes I wonder who the ad wizards are that come with the covers, though. I’ve seen way too many over sized stitches and frumpy-looking clothing staring back at me from the rack. I suppose the frumpy-looking magazines are not targeting my age group (I’m 26) anyway.
I’ve picked up a few odds and ends, knitsimple, etc. I need some additional suggestions though, because I’m always looking for new patterns. It’s my own knitter’s dilemma, I suppose, because I’m constantly thinking 2 projects ahead of where I am. The finishing can sometimes be less than great due to this (I hate sewing seams!). Knitting has been good for improving my patience.
