@ The friends who make things from yarn...

Any suggestions on a reputable place online to locate a simple afghan crochet pattern that would be pretty in shades of brown/beige homespun

I haven't had a chance to go through the patterns on www.ravelry.com, but there are TONS of free patterns there. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do anything with yarn, yet!

Me neither! I learned to both crochet and knit when I was about 10, but I didn't do it enough to remember much more than the basic motion now.

Ravelry.com is probably the one I was trying to think of... Thanks!

P.S. Has Vee seen Santa yet? He'll be at the HV Firestation tomorrow, if you wanna go. ;) Free pictures!

The wife suggests "Lion Brand Yarn", their home-spun is her favorite to use. You can get it from Micheal's.
She says its' really soft and good for blankets.

They also have a web site: http://www.lionbrandyarn.com/

Oh, she's bought the yarn she wants already, she's just looking for crochet patterns. :)

Any suggestions for that?

[therayray]

She said the web site had patterns as well.

Not what you were looking for.
