Knitsy Magazine: The new interactive knitting magazine designed exclusively for the tablet & phone App Reviews

Takes magazines to the next level. Not only a really good knitting mag but also a lot of interactive fun.

Every article is worth reading. The videos and photos enhance the experience. This sets the standard for online magazines.

LOVE it! Its hip, well made and the best knitting mag Ive read in a long time! Hope they make more!

Ive tried everything short of deleting and downloading all issues again. I dont want to use all my data so Im hoping for an update to fix soon.

I have downloaded the app, but there is an error, when I try to download any of three issues. Is it possible to fix?

Knitsy has relevant, new info about current designers, other types of fiber artists, techniques, patterns and much more. The pictures flip over for more info and most of navigation is easy. The only drawback is it needs a "back" button to take you back to your last place. Love this and glad I subscribed!

Good layout, lots of interactive features.

Every page says that its loading when first viewed and when it "finishes" either it is completely blank or full of broken images. Not sure why it seems the magazine is trying to pull its sources from outside the app/issue but apparently if the server is down or something isnt working perfectly the magazine becomes completely unusable/readable. Either that or something is wrong with it internally which is causing the problem. Either way - cant see anything.

I subscribe to 8 knitting mags on my iPad, and I can see this one being one of my favorites. Amazing graphics, excellent articles and awesome patterns.,, this mag is an epic WIN!

My girlfriend downloaded this on my iPad, but I spend almost as much time reading it as she does. Its a great looking magazine. Very easy to use. There are some very cool projects to read about, with a bit of humor mixed in, which is nice. Cant wait to see what else these guys come up with next.

I found I had an issue when downloading if I was connected to 4G. Its probably better to download when you are connected to a WiFi connection. Knitsy is loaded on my tablet and I love it! I find something new and fun every time I go back. Love this interactive format. Keep up the great work!

Colorful, interesting, informative. Once I was able to get it downloaded it worked wonderfully. I like that its UK based and gives me a different perspective on my favorite craft. (Different, yet just as enthusiastic and engaging!) Well-done.

Would love to see this knitting mag but nothing works. I check periodically to see if its been fixed but nada, same thing.

I have downloaded this app and tried to see this magazine several times. The content barely downloads and I cant see beyond certain pages. Just doesnt work.

The new magazine just crashes each time I try to open it

Anyone having issues with Knitsy Issue 3 should delete the app from the Newsstand and then download a new copy which will display all the issues correctly. Regards. Knitsy Dev Team

Beautiful magazine, beautiful app. I had no download problems or reading problems, except it was a little hard to navigate back to the app if you visited and advertisers site. While it is a big download, on high speed internet all three issues took about 1-2 min total. I like the mix of knit and crochet, I liked the way the ads fit in seamlessly, and I have enjoyed the articles and patterns. I hope in the future you have a wide array of designers, difficulty levels, and projects. I find the magazine content to be fun, engaging, and positive, but I think your marketing needs revision.

I subscribed to Knitsy with Issue 1 and have had problems all along. When I download one issue and look at the pages, the preview shows the previous issue before finally resolving into the current issue - usually. Sometimes I can’t see the current issue at all. The biggest problem now is that I had all issues on my iPad and now, it’s telling me I need to buy the first 4 - they disappeared! I have written to the developer twice since the 2nd of April and have had no response. Not a happy camper.

I guess I expected too much... I thought I would see items to knit or crochet and have the opportunity to purchase the instructions if I wanted them. I cant tell from the cover of a magazine if I want to purchase it. Additionally, the advertisement was in a miniature dollhouse magazine, so I thought I was getting a link to items I could make for my sisters doll houses. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!! I gave this one star because I was afraid no stars would not be counted as a rating!

It freezes when downloading. I dont know who made their app for them but they should ask for a refund. By all means try to buy and use one issue before you subscribe. I wrote to support and they responded, but could not fix the processing problem. I reinstalled it too, but that did not help
