First knitting, now crochet – craft titles take off

By katiejacobs

Craft enthusiasts rejoice, for not only does early 2009 include the launch of a new knitting magazine, but also a brand new title all about crochet.

The first issue of bi-monthly Inside Crochet will hit the stands in March, priced at £4.99 and published by KAL Media Ltd. It joins Yarn Forward and SEW Hip (everything you need to know about knitting and sewing respectively) in KAL’s portfolio.

Earlier this week, Knitting’s editor predicted a boom for niche hobby titles as people stop going out and spending money on socialising and start staying in with yarn and spools.

With two craft launched in three months, she may well be right.
