FREE PATTERNS!!!

I found the Garnstudio site a few years back accidentally, but fell in love right off the bat. I made some of the baby things and they were absolutely outstanding and very well received as gifts.  See! These two are from Drops, and the booties are made up in their alpaca yarn which is virtually WONDERFUL!

I just received the link to their new line of patterns and as usual they are all FREE.  Most are knit patterns, and gorgeous they are. However, they do have crochet patterns written in the American translation so easy to follow. Right now they have a flag under those patterns that are available. They will be brighter flags if they are ready, dim if the pattern isn't up. This is the first time I have seen so many waist coats and vests in crochet that are wonderfully designed in crochet!

If you are blessed by the hand of our Lord, and can knit, then I envy you the joy you will find amongst these pages of luscious patterns.  If you, like I, are a crocheter then you will enjoy looking and calculating how to translate some of these into our type of craft - but you will also find enough to satisfy your cravings for something new and different!
