I have been busy updating this site in the past two days. there have been additons to the Holiday, Christmas, Knitting Cloths and Animal pages. I will be adding as many links as possible this week.
While adding links to pages today I realized it is time to add new pages because some pages, like the Knit Cloths page, are getting lengthy. This will probably have to wait until after the Holidays are over because there is so much going on in my life at this time.
Enjoy!

I have been busy adding more links today. There have been additions to the pages for Holidays, Crochet Cloths, Knit Cloths, and Lacy Cloths.
I found a new tool accidentally today at The Knitting Fiend’s site that answers the question:
“How to fit Stitch Multiples in a row of knitting?”
She has other calculators that deal with topics ranging from decreasing stitches evenly across a row to spacing buttonholes. Here is the link to the main page for the calculators:
Tools to help you convert knitting patterns .
Even though the author’s emphasis is on knitting, it seems to me that many of the math principles she describes could apply to crocheting as well. I speak from my own experience as one who enjoys doing both.
this site also has other pages that might be of interest. Here is one which has been added to my list of Pages to Explore:
Stitch Patterns.
May you find this useful and informative. 🙂

I have made several additions and changes to this blog in the past few days. The most significant change is that some patterns are now listed on more than one page:
My goal is to make it easier find patterns. You will find that this will be done especially with Holiday patterns. Right now my choices are based on what seems right at the moment.
There have been more links added to most pages. The Side Bar Section called Favorite Blogs and Web Sites has more sites listed. These are there for your reading pleasure.
Enjoy!

Life and links on this blog are an interesting combination at times. This week they are especially unique because it is the week of the Baseball World Series and the St. Louis Cardinals Team is one of the contenders. I have been an avid Cardinal fan since the early 1960’s, having grown up listening to Jack Buck of KMOX Radio announcing the games. The rest of my family also enjoys them as well. Our evening meals this week have been quick and easy to allow us time to be done eating before the ball game. Most evenings there is time to work on this blog while my family watches programs that are not my to my liking. Even I can be found watching it this week during the ball game.
In this house, good baseball is good baseball regardless of who plays, wins or loses. If the Cardinals win, so much the better!
In addition to the World Series, my favorite Web Browser Firefox came out with a major update this week. Some of my computer time was spent setting up the browser to meet my wants and needs. The process was simple enough, but I kept getting side tracked trying it out and adding options to personalize it . It was fun to do. 🙂
In the meantime I am trying to keep this blog updated in between doing my assortment of Mom duties, taking time for email, knitting, crocheting, and living. Links have been added to the Towels, Holiday, Mop Covers and Knit Cloth sections. I will do more as time allows.
Hooray!!! The Labor Day weekend has finally arrived. I have been looking forward to this weekend for the past few weeks. There is much to do on this blog. I want to add links to crocheted items and hopefully either add links for merchants that sell dish/wash cloth patterns or make a list of some in a post. I am not sure how much will get done, but I will do my best. I will also add more links to free knitted dishcloths.
I have added a few more pattern links today. It took a while because I have learned the hard way to double check to make sure the URL’s have been added correctly. I know from my own experience how frustrating it can be to go to a site and find a dead link.
So far I have concentrated on knitting links. In the next few weeks I will work on adding some crocheted and Tunisian stitch links.
If you are looking for a specific pattern and don’t find it here, please let me know and I will help you find it.
