I think this is the first year I’ve asked for knitting or crochet patterns for Christmas, but as I am still too cheap to purchase patterns (and running out of time to come up with ideas that weren’t giftcards), I thought this would be a great and different idea. Plus, what a fun gift to give! My aunt (we draw names and buy for one person each in our extended family) did a wonderful job putting together a gift around 3 knit and crochet patterns. She printed each one off and picked out a couple skeins of yarn for the Crochet Slippers pattern as well as included the designated hook and a hand written note – which may have been my favorite part. :) I’m so excited to get started on these slippers, but then I can’t decide if I want to start the slippers first or the Rocky Mountain Coast cardigan.
Yup, I am on my way to being part of the Rocky Mountain Coast cardigan "club.” It would
appear to be a very popular pattern among my blog friends and after looking for
other cardigans that would suite my design needs, I kept coming back to this
one. The wonderful comments from
everyone else who has worked and completed it give me hope that I might finally
complete a cardigan and love it, too.
It would be nice to scratch that off my bucket list. ;)
