Knitting patterns under Creative Commons licennse

Knitting geek and BoingBoing reader Rose says,

Knitty is a web-published knitting magazine that normally comes out quarterly. They've done a special issue for breast cancer awareness that's just come out, and they've published it under a Creative Commons license. (see the last page of the special issue for details). This is the very first time I've seen knitting patterns published under a CC license, and I think it's splendid!
