I have a hard time knitting or crocheting in the summer. I know, there are folks out there who can knit and crochet at the beach in 110 degree weather but I am not one of them. I have no desire to work with yarn until the weather cools off so I know when fall starts I'll be pulling out the yarn and start hooking...so to speak.
So, for the folks out there who, like me, are getting ready to knit and crochet, I bring awesome patterns. Some of these patterns will be awesome for the new baby in your world, others perfect Christmas or Hanukkah gifts, and then, maybe something for yourself.
Who knows where the needles and hooks may take you?
This Leisure Arts booklet is filled with bootie patterns...baby booties, that is. Sweet little Mary Janes, boots, elf shoes (!), even saddle shoes bootie style. The patterns use sport yarn and US number 7 knitting needles. Hey, you can change the yarn and needles and make ornaments....just saying.
There is always someone who needs slippers during the winter and here's some great patterns to keep those toes warm. There are patterns for moccasins, espadrilles, sandals, and even fur-around-the-ankle-keep-the-toes-warm slippers. Even slippers from granny squares for those granny square addicts. The patterns use worsted weight yarn and hook size E to I.
These pillows have the retro look everyone is looking for. The patterns use worsted weight yarn and hooks from F to I.
Adorable ornaments using bedspread weight (size 10) thread and a clothespin.
