Beautiful free patterns
DROPS Design This company locates Nordic patterns, translates and offers them FREE to us. The patterns are lovely and professional - they also sell their high quality yarn at decent prices. These are knitting and crochet. Once at the website, chose your language and the new Drops Design pages appears. Chose your category and browse patterns. But browse thru each category, you have no idea what you might miss.
I found a gorgeous jumpsuit, but it is a knit pattern and I haven't knitted in over 50 years. Is there a website that assists with changing a knit pattern to crochet? Or does anyone know how to do this, or can it be done?
Enjoy this site - you will be amazed at how lovely the patterns are.

Afay, thank you - I am experimenting with yarn and needles - think I may go with thread and steel hooks. I tried knitting last nite - argggggggg much too slow for my lack of experience. Will work it out in crochet. (the jumpsuit is a baby pattern, in navy with white and red trim - gorgeous - I love it, and have no baby to receive it. hee hee

We have no small "grands" either - so I give to folks at Church; not only can I follow my passion for crochet but bless others unexpectedly! What joy. Happy crocheting!

Great post! I used to be a knitter, now because of hand arthritis I am learning to crochet. This is a great asset to many of us.
