Submissions for Summer 2009

Submissions are now open for Issue #04: Summer 2009! For our summer issue, we’re looking for men’s patterns and baby items, since these are the type most lacking on Popknits currently, but any pattern will be considered. If you have a pattern you think would be great for Popknits, please send it on. Also, feel free to submit patterns regardless of their seasonality. As temperatures climb in the Northern Hemisphere and knitting with wool becomes unbearable, don’t forget that winter is in full swing to those in the Southern Hemisphere. Popknits is season-agnostic! To find out more, check our submissions guidelines and download our submissions pack before getting your files together.

Submissions for Summer 2009 close on April 1, 2009.

Advertising Slots Are Now Open

Slots are now open for the Spring Issue especially on the patterns pages. This is a great slot for getting views on your advertisement. Our most popular patterns get thousands of page views. Just imagine your ad on those pages! Traffic to Popknits during the Winter Issue was extremely good. The site was host to more than 60,000 unique visitors with more than 175,000 page views! That’s 25% more visitors than our Fall premiere issue. I expect to see even more knitters visit the site for the Spring Issue.

If you’re an LYS owner or etsy seller, now is the perfect time to advertise with us. Many of our patterns use yarns that you carry! To be sure, I have posted a list of yarns that are featured in the Spring issue. If you sell these yarns or similar ones that can be substituted, consider placing an ad with us.
