Have tried that, but have had no response. Thanks.

There was one issue on e-bay but it was for $22. Here is one cheaper and also another e-bay auction that might have it if you ask the seller. Mary

Some libraries keep back issues of old magazines, sometimes this old. Worth checking.

Thanks, but I don't like my chances as I am in Australia.

If you ask the e-bay seller might ship international providing you pay the postage. Mary

Thanks to everyone for their help. I managed to find the magazine on ebay for a very reasonable price, and it arrived in the mail today. :-)

So glad that worked out for you, have fun with the pattern. Mary
