Do you Flickr? If not, you should.
It’s full of lovely craft inspiration and lots of groups FULL of free patterns. Many of these are artists just beginning to learn how to write and publish their designs, so they give a few patterns out for free. There are some really incredibly talented people out there. I found this beautiful dragonfly (click the photo, leave the artist some love and download the free pattern). “Wow, if you made 5 or 6 of these in assorted colors, they would make a lovely baby mobile.” A few clicks later in Disco Smurf’s photo stream, there is a beautiful buggy mobile, with lost of fluttery friends.
By now you should know I LOVE TWITTER. I’ve been tweeting for a long time, so I recall the good old days when Fail Whale would show up several times a day. I wouldn’t want to leave out my crochet friends, so here’s an adorable WhaleBoy Toy for your Friday Find. Again, click the photo to go to the page, leave some love for Catcro in comment form, and download the pattern. Don’t forget if you make either of these patterns to let the designers know when you blog or add them to your own Flickr account. We all love a “Good Job” pat on the back, even in cyber form.




cute. Thanks
