Favotite Crochet Pattern Links

[Tina]

I just found this site and I think it's awesome.

 

I've been crocheting for 37 years now and I'm always looking for new crochet patterns to try. I thought it be nice if I posted a few of my favorite crochet pattern links that I love making. I'm hoping some of you ladies will post some of your favorite pattern links also. Maybe we can all find new ideas we would like to try.

 

I love to make these towel toppers because you need no buttons for them. My favorite are the heart and flower toppers. After I finish the pattern I crochet around the heart or flower with yarn that matches the background color of the towel (most times white or beige). It really makes the heart or flower stand out.

I found this heart towel holder a couple of months ago. The joining row I did in white or beige to match the towel I was using. They are so pretty when they are finished.

I have always loved the fabric yo-yo angels. Here's a pattern for a crochet one. There are so many different ways to finish them.

I'm partial to CPC ( http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com) and that's not just because I own it! Even if somebody else was doing the work and not me, I'm very pleased to have a place to go to that has all the latest free patterns and minimum broken links.

 

I don't have favorite pattern links, I guess you could say, I just have a favorite place to go to find them all.

CPC ROCKS! I have your button on my blog, and I go there everyday
