Free pattern websites
Here is the list of websites I use to get my patterns. Remember these patterns have different requirements. Most do not allow you to sell the items you make. Please read the requirements, I personally do not sell my items. I have found that for most things I make I can find free online.
Most of these you can print, to make it easier for you follow. I have printed several patterns, that way I don’t have to be sitting in front of my computer to make them, or search for the pattern when I want to make it again.
These links will include different items I will try to describe what you will find.
http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com/ Here you can find crochet, knit, and a combination of crochet/knit patterns. There is something for everyone here.
http://www.afghansnmore.com/free-patterns-directory/ This site has crochet, sewing, knit, & cross stitch patterns.
http://www.craftfreebies.com This site offers multiple free patterns, and ideas.
http://www.freepatterns.com/ this site requires membership to download patterns. Membership is free. It offers patterns, a free newsletter, tips and hints, & supplies to buy.
http://www.crochet-knit.com/ This site offers patterns to buy and download. I included this site because they have some hard to find items.
http://www.angelfire.com/tx5/angelcrafts/ The patterns on this site are for babies. The owner of the patterns and site crochets for charities. She also has a yahoo group on crocheting for charities, there is a link on this site to her group.
http://www.craftown.com/ this is a free craft site, there are projects for every craft you can imagine.
http://www.crochetnmore.com/ This was one of the first sites I found when I was learning to the internet. There are free patterns as well as patterns to purchase. I have only used the free patterns here.
http://froggedknits.blogspot.com/ This is a blog that does offer some patterns.
http://www.waitingroomministry.com/ This site has patterns for prayer shawls and information on prayer shawls. There are directions for both knit and crochet.
http://crochet.about.com/ Here you will find free patterns, patterns to buy, hints and tips, learn to crochet, and more.
When I have checked all these sites and can’t find the pattern I want I do a search for the exact thing I’m looking for, such as “free crochet chemo hat patterns” then check websites until I find what I want. I then save the site to favorites.
I now have to work on a dedication outfit. Hope these sites bring you what you are looking for. Happy Crocheting.
I see you have some links that I have not visited. Thank you for listing them. I look forward to reading more of your blog.
