Reader's Choice

Thank you to  those of you who have been faithfully following That Yarn Girl for the past six months.  While that does not seem like a long time to some, I am thrilled to have been dedicated to keeping this going!  As a reward to my readers, you choose the next project for That Yarn Girl.

Here are some pattern finding tips:
     -If you know what kind of pattern you are after, Google is always a good place to start.  It is also a good place to start if you have a little bit of an idea.
     -If you would like a great place to browse crochet patterns with ease, check out Ravelry.com.  Here is the caveat with Ravelry, you will have to set up an account.  If you are not interested in doing that, no problem!  There are several other places to look.
     -Your next stop would be crochetpatterncentral.com. This one will give you hours of perusing patterns.  Let me warn you, this stop contains some of the most interesting patterns known to crochet kind.
     -Do you know your yarn brands?  If so, you can always look at their websites.  They tend to have patterns on their websites and they are usually easy to find.  Here are a couple of the yarn brand sites:
          www.bernat.com 
          www.lionbrand.com
          www.redhart.com

After you have had an opportunity to look around, when you find the pattern  you are after - email it to me at thatyarngirl@gmail.com.  I will choose the winning pattern and announce it next week.  In the mean time, I do have new projects to post.  Keep following That Yarn Girl for all crocheting adventures!!
