I also love to make things for my little dog, Tuffy, but how many sweaters can a little dog wear in FL? I have knitted him a bed also but I think my next project for him is a sofa seat, kinda like a little square afghan for him (we have fairly new furniture and we prefer it to stay that way so for now I lay a towel down so he can be up beside me on the love seat). He just loves anything "yarny" so he will enjoy a little afghan all his own to lay on and it will also match and look nice with the furniture.
See there I go again. I am currently making 2 different things (yes, I have to have more than one thing to work on at a time). I am knitting a quick and easy sweater, and crocheting an afghan for the living room. I also have one UFO to finish. A UFO is an unfinished project if you are wondering. Yet I am dreaming about what stitch to make Tuffy's afghan with and also searching for just the right shade of green to make me another sweater to wear with a certain skirt, and oh that was the cutest baby pattern that I downloaded from Knitting Fever.com.
What do I do so I don't lose all the great patterns and projects for future use?
If I really love the pattern I download and print it out and put it into my TO DO Binder. I bought a big 3" binder and page protectors to slip the patterns into. Then I divided them up into sections like baby, socks, toys, sweaters etc...
Then when I need a new project to start I can flip through it and quickly find something. I find it much easier than trying to remember where I saw that cute pattern last month. I also bookmark all my favorite websites that have great free patterns. I will attempt to share these with you in the PATTERNS AND YARN LINKS on the side of this page.
Oh if you want to see the baby pattern I was referring to from Knitting Fever Inc.
the pattern can be found at http://www.knittingfever.com/c/leaflet/10173/.
