I tried emailing the magazine several times. First time they said they had no back issues. I wrote back and explained that I had the mag, but needed the name of the designer. They recommended 2 web sites--no luck. Third time, they said they would pass my request on to someone to help me. No response again. I gave up and this is my version. Hope they don't come after me, but I certainly tried my best. The magazine said the pattern was on line, but that was a mistake. It wasn't there. Other patterns from that issue were there, but not the snowflake.
It seems like somebody would know about the pattern since they showed it in the magazine. Whoever is in charge of their email did not know anything about it.
