BERNE, Ind. -- The July 2012 issue of Creative Knitting magazine is now available in select specialty stores and on newsstands nationwide.

Produced by DRG, a leader in the craft and nostalgia markets, the July issue includes 26 new knitted projects designed for women, children and infants. It features lightweight cardigans for summer and a variety of other interesting projects, as well as informative articles that promote the art of knitting and provide valuable learning tools.

The magazine is written for knitters from every experience level. It also includes book reviews, how-to tips, and information on where to find products used in the featured magazine projects.

Creative Knitting Editor Kara Gott Warner recently announced a new feature in the magazine -- a Knit-Along series. Knitters can visit Ravelry.com and join the Creative Knitting Fan Group at any time to get started in the series. The site will have someone available to answer questions and provide encouragement.

In 1997, Gott Warner began designing knitted and crocheted garments and accessories, selling on the craft and artisan show circuit. She soon branched off to knitting patterns and kits, and in 2002, established igottknits, an independent knitting pattern collection sold through yarn shops and several online venues.

In 2008, she began working as a freelance knit editor for DRG, focusing on books. In 2010, she joined the company as executive editor for all knitting publications.

Creative Knitting is one of five specialty crafting magazines created by DRG. The company also produces kits, supplies and Web-deliverable products in print catalogs and on its more than 40 websites.

The Creative Knitting Web address is CreativeKnittingMagazine.com.
