My Free Patterns: I have several patterns ready for this month. A Tiny Star that is so quick and easy to crochet.
Baby things are great to make in the summer since they are so small and can be easily taken with you for those stops during construction on the road.
Here is a pair of quick and easy to knit Preemie Baby Booties.
I have finally added pictures to my knit Baby Sweater that zips down the back. It was done for my grandson in camouflage yarn and larger needles but allows you to see what the sweater looks like. I can make this sweater in a trip out of town and back if I don't have to drive. It is really very quick and easy. I have also almost finished a variation of this pattern that does not have the hood and opens down the front. Just need to finish the sleeves, I probably post it in next months newsletter.
This is a repeat of this info:
I'm making Preemie things for my yahoo group "Charity Hearts". We have a type of charity every quarter to crochet, knit, quilt, or what ever your craft is, for.
This quarter is making for preemies. At the end of the quarter, July, these items will be sent out to 2 hospitals that need them. If you want to join or donate
email me and let me know. These little preemie items are the perfect thing to make in the summer heat. A big thank you to those that have already sent items to
me. I will be making personalized tags for the items with your name on for each item. If you would like to send them directly I can get you the mailing
information. smile@idsely.com
