Knitty's spring issue...
Sometimes, good things have repercussions that you don't expect.

In this case, the result is this: the spring issue will be coming out in mid-April, not March as previously scheduled. The cause? Too much good stuff is happening at once in my part of the world.

You may know that I'm writing a knitting book that is due to be published this fall by Harper Collins. All the writing and editing is happening right now, and I won't let Knitty suffer by not giving it the attention it deserves. So it's better to delay the spring issue a little in order to produce a quality issue.

We expect the spring issue will be extra big [we already have a good stash of goodies submitted early], and we'll probably sneak a little summer stuff in there, as well, to thank you for waiting extra long. The summer issue will be coming out mid-June, and will probably be smaller than usual.

By fall, all will be back to normal.

And a word from our sponsors :-) :
We have some really sweet advertisers in the current issue. Please support them by clicking their Knitty ads when you need to make a knitting-related purchase. It's good for everyone!

p.s. Some nice people have written to ask the name of the book. I promise to post all the details here as soon as I have them. Thanks for asking!
