Interweave Crochet Magazine
This crochet magazine is probably geared more towards the intermediate to advanced crocheter, with most of the pattern offerings being children's and women's sophisticated wearables. In addition, monthly columns provide new crochet book reviews, a yarn spotlight, and technical assistance. There's a new column on "Craftivism", which provides a pattern designed by a staff member to make and donate to a featured charity. Many beautiful projects in this magazine!

Crochet Today! Magazine
This crochet magazine is a great one for all crocheters, but especially beginners. The instructions are clear, well written, and give a lot of additional information, like alternative yarn selections, pictures and diagrams of the finished project, and tips on how to modify. The magazine has a good variety and selection of patterns as well, with many wearables as well as seasonal items and projects for the home. In addition, there are recurring columns that give helpful hints, new crochet-related products, and charitable organizations looking for crochet help. You can get a sense of their offerings, some free patterns, and subscription information on their website at www.crochettoday.com

Crochet! Magazine
As modern and sophisticated as Interweave Crochet magazine is and as cute and trendy as Crochet Today! magazine is, Crochet! Magazine seems to fall into the more traditional and frilly category. Many of the patterns employ ruffles, flowers, and more ornate trims and edges, so I would recommend it for the intermediate crocheter. The magazine, which is the official magazine of the Crochet Guild of America, gives clear instructions for the patterns and the materials needed, photographs of the project as well as drawings and schematics for the finished product and how to put pieces together. They do offer a nice variety of women's (and sometimes men's) wearables, projects for baby, and home and seasonal decorations. There are regular columns that address readers' letters and "hooks and humor" as well as crochet in the news, and they too offer web bonuses at their website www.crochetmagazine.com
