Looks like a beautiful mag, but...
After downloading the app, you have free access to one beautiful, complete issue. I liked what I saw, so I tried to register so that I could subscribe. Put in my email and password and was left "logging in" for 15 minutes. I should note, I recently tried using another Pocketmag app and had a similar problem. Looks like a great mag, but I won't trust the app for purchases, even if it ever logs me in.

Fantastic
Great magazine full of patterns and a nice range of articles
Top mag. Bad sub discounts.
Better than other UK crochet mags - the patterns are modern, well designed and will appeal to crocheters of all abilities. Editorial is well written and relevant to the title in a punchy, chatty style. The layout is such that you get the mag at the front then all the patterns towards the rear of the magazine - no more flicking thro hundreds of pages to find the second half of a pattern, which is a great decision.
Only downer is the discount rates for subscriptions - as mentioned in other reviews. It's pants. The minuscule discount is the same for print or digital and, honestly, hardly worth it.
No other incentive to subscribe either - no free gift.
IMHO this irks a little bit but it's still worth buying the mag because it's the best on the UK market.
If you like it also consider trying Interweave Crochet, its a US title with the most fab patterns for intermediate to advanced crocheters.

Good read
I like the mix of items to make, small things and larger ones, garments and accessories. And they are things I would consider making or have made. Nice articles too.
My favorite crochet mag
I love this crochet magazine. Their patterns are trendy and don't look like like things only my mom would wear. Sometimes I get a bit frustrated having to read the UK terms, but it's definitely worth putting up with for having several patters from each issue that I want to make.
Excellent value for money
Great magazine. Much more content than others available.
The best uk crochet mag!
Consistently has patterns I'm itching to get started on! All those I have made have been well written.
Not downloading completely
Bought a subscription. First issue downloaded fine. Second issue will only download 4 pages. A bug?
Fantastic
This is the best crochet magazine, love it. And the app is great, have had no trouble with it.
Awful
Disappeared from device after downloading iOS 7 and now won't let me download previous issues and is making me pay again - despite the fact that I have subscribed. Very angry - fix this please.
