What happened to Mag Knits?

[dulcet_ambrosia]

I saw a ballet camisole someone was working on here and loved it. It was a free pattern on Mag Knits, and I saved it to my favorites. But when I went back to get the pattern, it was gone! Does anyone know where I might be able to find it? I've tried doing a google search to find it again, but I can't. If anyone can help, it would be great. Thanks.

I hope it's not down for good! Right now the message coming up is

Email us at magknitsATyarnforwardmagazine.co.uk

You might give that a try. I hope they put it back up!

I was at the site last week, and there was a letter posted that made it sound like the site is down for good. It also said some of the patterns may be posted later at Yarn Forward Magazine.

Yes, the owner of the Mag Knits site has decided to take it down. She also runs Yarn Forward magazine and a separate yarn business called Hip Knits (all based in the UK). The Mag Knits site was apparently not profitable for her, yet required many hours of work each week. She has decided to concentrate her efforts on the parts of her business that are profitable, which is perfectly understandable.

Thanks for the information. That's very disappointing. It was a great resource.

I guess I should have printed out the patterns I wanted to make when I had the chance.

If you belong to Ravelry.....here is a link that discusses this. It also has links to some of the patterns. If you are not logged in....I just searched magknits under forums. Hope you can find the pattern you are looking for!
