I was sad to read this morning that Craft will stop publishing their print magazine after their current issue. They are vowing to continue to have a strong online presence, which I’m sure will be successful, but there was something fitting about a print publication for the new generation of people who like to make things with their hands.
I’m happy that I was able to have a pattern published in the magazine last year, and I hope I’ll get to work with them again in a different way in the future. Long live Craft!
this makes me so sad!
I too was sad when I got my email from CRAFT about this :( I loved it when my magazine arrived in the mail, and will miss it….
I have a recurring dystopian fantasy of a world where all the magazines I love have stopped publishing, where all my favorite restaurants have closed down.
I have to work very hard to keep myself from buying and hoarding lots of yarn and fabric “in case the day comes when you can’t get them any more.”
