Amy's favorite Free Pattern links

[amy]

UPDATE:

Okay, stop the presses! I think I'll be keeping the patterns section up afterall. Just not with all the images. It turns out I'm getting 10% of new visitors through that section, so it would be really dumb to do away with it.

Thank you so much everyone for working on this thread for me!!! I REALLY appreciate it, and feel so supported! You all are WONDERFUL! Sorry to have you do all this work, and end up keeping that section. I'll keep this thread up, just in case things change. But no need to continue adding to it unless things change.

Thanks!
Amy

Original message:

I will soon be closing down the original patterns section altogether (details here), With your help, the links will be transfered to this thread. (Thanks everyone!!!)


If you want to help out with this, please read on....

To avoid two of you working on the same section at once, try doing it this way. Starting from the top down, choose a section to work on, from this page. Hat's have already been done by ekgheiy. Choose the next section that hasn't been done already, and create a post called "Scarves" or whatever, and post it, even though it's an empty post so far. Then, go in and edit your post, adding all the scarf links from the scarf section. If you do it that way, people will immediately see that you're working on that section, and you can take your time adding to the post. This will also keep the sections in order, for easy browsing.

Heads up... many patterns pages have a bunch of my favorite links listed at the bottom of the page, without pictures, so double check there too! Thanks!

Thanks for your help everyone! I feel so supported, having your help with this! xoxo
