Those crochet designs are SO trendy and LOVELY.

 

I had these linked on my blog.. a year ago. So I went and found them.

 

~ cd holder granny style bag

http://www.manidifata.it/InRegalo.cfm?Cod=67&lingua=2

 

~ skimpy little top

http://www.manidifata.it/InRegalo.cfm?Cod=52&lingua=2

 

~ cloche

http://www.manidifata.it/InRegalo.cfm?Cod=69&lingua=2

 

~ ivory shawl with flowers

http://www.manidifata.it/InRegalo.cfm?Cod=53&lingua=2

 

They are a little hard to find.. why I linked them back when... If the links revert to Italian, just click the british flag at the top and it will convert to English.

 

I guess there might be other ones now, since I found these a year or so ago.

 

Hope that's what ya'll wanted.

Thank you so much! (I had asked to be directed to their free patterns in my previous post, but edited because I thought I'd found them. Turns out I'd missed a few.)

Wow! Beautiful! How did you find that site? I always wonder that when people post links to these wonderful sites they've found. Thank you so much for sharing that. I enjoyed looking at all of them!

[Lisaizme]

Rachel, Thanks for the links to the ones I didn't have. I posted them in my blog again for easy retrieval.

 

Shelle, If you're interested, I have some links to a Russian forum... mainly with shawls. I don't read or speak Russian, but I can decipher the schematics.. sometimes.

 

I don't remember how I found it.. it's been over a year that I've had these links.

I'm not Shelle, but I'd be interested in your links! Once I finish working through the skirt CAL I'm on, I will (hopefully) be able to follow those schematics with some skill, since that is what we are using in the CAL, and I'm already learning a LOT from it! I've admired so many of the Russian designed clothes previously, and now I will have the knowledge to be able to reproduce them.

another interesting one is at

 

http://www.melissa.ru

 

Unless you read Russian the Melissa site will need translating.

 

paste the above link into babelfish

 

http://babelfish.altavista.com/

 

and select Russian to English Translation if you want.

 

After the tranlation, look on the left side and chose Needelwork, then Binding by the Hook (which means crochet). Have fun looking around. Napkins = doilies, Charles or Palantine = Shawls.

Thanks Lisa!!! I will check those out thoroughly! You're so sweet!

I was in Italy, and I bought a couple of their knitting magazines. Gorgeous stuff! They had a link to a website...
