Coming Soon: Patterns for tiny projects, like Lion Brand's "Pocket Pets" (click on the link for the pattern, and scroll down to the bottom of the page to send a "tiny project" pattern to the WebStitcher).
SGMC --Link to a pattern for "Babies Without Blankets" Crochet and Craft Links and Knit Links (These sites provide countless links to free patterns, many originals by craftspeople rather than by companies. Here you can find vintage patterns as well as new patterns.) All Fiber Arts--Knitting and All Fiber Arts--Crochet (Check out the list of links to the left of the opening page too.) About.com--Crochet and About.com--Knitting (These sites contain what seem to be nearly exhaustive lists of links.)
Hint: When you go to a site that features a very long list of
patterns, type "control-F"--that will open a drop-down box into which you
can type a word associated with the pattern you want to find. Then, if
you've typed "angel" or "discloth" or "preemie," your cursor will go to
those words on the page.
The Shawl Ministry (Prayer Shawls are shawls that are prayerfully knitted and crocheted, blessed, and then given away to those who are celebrating an event or those who are grieving. Janet Bristow and Victoria Galo, two graduates of the 1997 Women's Leadership Institute at The Hartford Seminary in Hartford, Connecticut, began the shawl ministry in 1998. Go to their site for prayers, links, patterns, stories, and more.) Crochet Pattern Central (This site has a section for patterns that combine knitting and crocheting.) Project Linus (Click on the "Patterns & Links" button at the top of the page. See the Stitchers' Projects page for the need for preemie and baby blankets locally.) Lion Brand list of FREE PATTERNS
