Free Crochet Patterns and a Giveaway Extravaganza

Hello everyone!  I hope you all had a nice and relaxing Memorial Day holiday.  I have settled back to visit some of my favorite blogs, one of my very favorite pastimes!  My friends never disappoint when I'm needing inspiration, instruction, entertainment, or just a good laugh. Here's what I found around the web today!

First off,  my friend Pammy Sue over at Scotty's Place is hosting a fantastic giveaway celebrating the 4 year anniversary of her awesome blog!  She's giving away 5 different packages, each containing some beautiful crochet pattern books/pamphlets.  (One of the prize packages has 8 pattern pamphlets!!) Hop on over and enter to win! While you're there, be sure to check out Pammy Sue's blog.  It's entertaining, hilarious and just full of all kinds of crochet goodness! Good luck to all!


I'm constantly on the lookout for crochet patterns, especially the free ones!  Look at these adorable patterns I found today:

I fell in love with this sweet little Magdalena doll from Mia over at Owlishly. I'm a big fan of Mia's designs and I visit both her blog and her Etsy shop regularly.  

Another super talented designer is Thread Bear Artist Cindy Sickler at Demonstrative Bears.How cute is this  long-legged little bear?  The free pattern is available here.

Another one of my very favorite places to visit is Attic 24. Lucy's crochet designs are colorful and modern and I always find something to love on her blog! The free pattern for Lucy's birdie decoration is here.

While you're there, grab the free pattern for this beautiful crochet bag.

What a neat idea for your blooming little artist's art supplies.

And last, but certainly not least, is Funmigurumi Poochie dog #3 "Missy".

I discovered Missy on  Crafty Begonia's Funmigurumi and Kid's Stuff blog.

She has a whole collection of these Funmigurumi Poochie dogs and they are c-u-t-e! Even better, all of the Funmigurumi Poochie dog patterns are free!

Well, that's all for now.  I hope that with the help of these awesome crochet designers, I've managed to provide some inspiration for all of my crochet friends. I know these inspired me!   If any of you know of a blog that's loaded with crochet inspiration feel free to post the link below so we can all check it out.

I hope you all have a wonderful week!  Thanks for visiting as always!
