PURL Magazine’s purpose is to serve as a kind of encyclopedia of knitting knowledge – a stamp of the current moment in knitting time, a record of the evolving line of knowledge stretching out behind us, and a curious look toward the future.
PURL aims to be comprehensive, diverse, and filled with knowledge and learning. PURL is not a magazine filled with knitting patterns – there are already so many places to find stunning projects created by wonderful designers to put on your needles. PURL focuses on the how and why, on expanding, experimenting, edifying. Of course, PURL does include a few patterns, but those will be there to support the articles that explore technique, yarn, stitches, and skills.
