Where did www.ljccrochetdesigns.com go?

Where did this website go? I had tons of bookmarks with great patterns but haven't been able to find it?

 

Anyone know?

[Granny Square]

No, but sadly that seems to be the way of a lot of sites lately. If I see an online pattern I can't live without I print it out, I've had to many bookmarks disappear.

I have noticed quite a few of my bookmarks for crochet have disappeared. I thought I had printed out some of them but alas I cannot find them either.

I went to Crochet Poet the other night looking for something and nothing in particular, and I was browsing the thousands of links on that site, there were SO many of them that were dead. Since Celt's site is gone and AOL closed their Hometown pages down, a LOT of patterns have gone the way of the dodo. Fortunately, Celt has her Yahoo group so those patterns can still be accessed if you apply for membership to the group, but all the other ones seem to be just gone, gone, gone.

I'm printing out the ones I like and putting them in a notebook. Now I'm glad I'm doing that!

You could always make a crochet folder on the computer. Then just copy and paste the patterns into a word document and save them to that folder.

it might would be easier to save the page to the computer, in the folder. or to download a pdf maker and "print" the website as a pdf to the computer.

The only thing with saving to your computer is if you don't back it up it will be gone to.

thank goodness I thought of that a few months ago & bought a flash drive for all my crochet stuff. My computer got a bug 2 weeks ago; I would have lost them all.

Same here!! I have a 16 gig flash drive that I keep my patterns and other pertinant files on. I just had a nasty and persistent virus a few weeks ago. If I hadn't kept everything backed up on that flash drive I would have lost everything!

It wouldn't hurt to check your flash drive with a virus scan program. It's possible that an infected file is on the flash drive too & might then be back on your computer. Doesn't hurt to be safe.
