Amy R Singer is the editor of the online knitting magazine Knitty.com which has had more than 139 million site visits since its launch in 2002. Eleven years ago.
Most people who learn she’s a knitter, knitting teacher and knitting magazine editor who is allergic to wool think it’s hysterical. Ha. Never mind. She’s perfectly happy knitting with cotton and silk and lots of other stuff, and wrote a book on the subject (No Sheep for You; Interweave Press, 2007), and a few others about other stuff.
Knitty launched in 2002, when the web was very different from the bloggy-Twitter-Ravelry-infused online knitting world we have today. Learn about how Knitty began, why it works the way it does, and heaps of other insider tidbits straight from the source.
