Do you mean this? Someone in charge of Knitter's Review (I'm not in that world, so I don't know if she's the founder or what) posted the following on her blog:
Today I stumbled across a new online knitting magazine that'll be coming out soon. It's called Spun. Founder Mary-Margaret Jones explains, "We want a stitch-and-bitch lifestyle magazine — a zine that takes into account our shared love of yarn but goes even further. It would also be about music, films, art, food, travel. And there would be features about people like us."
I always cringe when I see people use the "something for people like us" description, because it's so prone to ego and abuse and it always comes surrounded by a huge, exclusive, anti-us wall.
So we'll see. But isn't it interesting that Knitty already has an anti-Knitty! Which goes to prove that even in the knitting world, we're a fickle bunch.

So I guess she's declaring that Spun is the anti-Knitty.
the girl from auntie disagrees, though: http://www.girlfromauntie.com/journal/index.php/2005/you-name-it-theres-someone-out-there-who-hates-it/feed/
