I'm pleased - the change in offered designs

[RachelG]

Have you all noticed the gradual changing over that has much pleased me in the past few weeks?

 

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate each and every pattern created, but for awhile there was a lack of (free) clothing patterns. (Tops, shrugs, etc...not scarves and hats, so much.) Now, thanks to Diane, Garnstudio, Berroco, and others, there's been a much appreciated surge of them!!!!

 

Thank you, everyone!

Absolutly! Crochet fashion has taken a turn for the better and it's very exciting to watch it evolve. More hip and youthfull designs. Better quality of yarns, better quality of patterns, look out knitting kingdom, we're knocking on your door!

I couldn't agree more! I actually printed out some of Garnstudios and Berroco's tops... something that I have never done in the past. It is a wonderful trend and I hope it continues.

Yes, and thanks to you, Rachel, for including all those wonderful free patterns on CPC!

My pleasure. You could almost call it an obsession...my constant hunt for new crochet and knit pattern links to add. There are tricks to the "trade", and although I wouldn't go straight to calling myself an ace expert, I do have my ways of being everywhere at once.
