Crochet News:: A Great Site For Free Patterns

I stumbled upon another great website for free crochet patterns, a site I don't see listed in everyone's "favorite links" list on their blogs. It's Berocco.com, and has crochet and knitting patterns for free or booklets for purchase, a wide variety of absolutely gorgeous yarns to choose from in brilliant, dazzling color schemes.

One particular pattern that is included in one of the booklets for purchase, struck me as not only beautiful but unusual. A feminine scarf, lacy and flowery and is nice enough that anyone would love to receive it as a gift (I'm thinking Christmas but it would make a nice gift any time of year if you live by the beach in California that is. )

I do love scarves and am always looking for interesting and beautiful scarf patterns that look like they would be fun to make, not just the tedious dc across every row. A pattern like that is difficult for me to finish because I get so dang bored with it. heh. heh.

I'm definitely going to add this scarf to my que and probably a few more (if not many more) from the Berroco crochet pattern directory and I'll definitely be purchasing some of the crochet pattern books Berocco has for purchase.

Let me know if you've made any of Berocco's patterns, if you've used any of their yarns, etc. in the comments below. Have a great crochet day.

Signing off with a new handle (not another one! ) changed to The Mad Hooker! (That would be the crazy mad, not the angry mad. )
