I finally checked out Lion Brand Yarns website for the free patterns (I'd been snubbing it, honestly, as too commercial). I must say I was pleasantly surprised. There are thousands of free knit/crochet patterns. Many patterns had been reviewed by the web-site members...really nice to be forewarned if a pattern runs big/small, doesn't work or whatever. Of course, there is knitty.com (an online knit zine with free, downloadable patterns). I haven't been able to check out any new craft books/web sites lately (new baby in the house). Does anyone have any new favorites?

I want to learn how to knit, so I joined this group to get ideas, for when I am more of a pro :) I already feel inspired by the pics in the comments section! :)

I'm feeling put to shame here, I used to knit for a design agency, but in the last year all I've done are my daughter's first size clothes and half a jumper for my husband that I promised him about four years ago now!

Dang Amberlee, you are a fast knitter. I am a very distracted knitter. I knit 3 rows and then toddle off. I get most of the knitting done on the road while I'm waiting for someone or visiting someone because I like to do something whil I'm sitting still. But I have a hat to fiish for my daughter before x-mas so I have to kick in to high gear! Post some pictures of your projects if you get a chance. I want to see those gauntlets. I know if I made a matching set Fi would be very happy. I just need to get past the fear of working with small double-pointed needles.

In the last week I have knitted 4 sets of handwarmers, crocheted a lacey scarf, knitted a set of slipper socks and started another set of handwarmers/gauntlets. Saturday I will be learning to make a sweater from the top down. I have 4 more slipper sets to make, one is a felted clog. I want to find a pattern for crochet or knit button necklaces too. So fun!

I'm working on a felted booga bag. The first project I've ever done for myself. Making the ichord is pretty fun....

Oh, my lovely gauntlets are done! I'm so happy and thankful to whoever posted pix of their swank punk mits with the laces. Mine are sillier - flocked orange with green stripes and knit in the round rather than lace-up - but gosh they're warm! I've slept with warm wrists and awakened with no aches in my arms and shoulders. Hooray! Hooray! I'll be making some for George, next - need to dig through the stash today for some fun colors for him.

My knitted, felted bag is finished - it just has to dry so I can use it! there's a picture of it on my blog, which is linked to my page here.
