Aprons and Stargazer's Site

Someone on an email list to which I belong asked for links to apron patterns. Her preference was for them to be crocheted. I decided to do what I thought would be a quick search for them on Google. My quick search ended up taking more than an hour to complete. This was because I kept finding interesting sites that might have what I was looking for. What fun!!! :) I limited myself to sites with free patterns with the exception of one site that offers both a freebie and one for sale. Here is what I found: These are links to crocheted aprons : http://www.angelfire.com/folk/celtwich/Apron.html http://www.knitting-crochet.com/crochet/aproncro.html http://twosisters.lothruin.com/crochapron.html http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/lffunt/apron.htm http://www.freepatterns.com/fp_pdfs/Other/Crochet/Acorn_Apron.pdf http://www.learntoknit.com/may05_apron.html Here is a knitted apron: http://www.npr.org/programs/morning/features/2006/sep/knitting/knit1.pdf Lion brand has two crocheted patterns: one free and another for free: http://www.lionbrand.com I also found a Blog about aprons: http://angrychicken.typepad.com/tieoneon/free_patterns/index.html

Here is a knitted apron from a link on the Apron blog: http://knitty.com/ISSUEspring04/PATTpartyapron.html

One of the stops along my way was the Stargazer's Site. This time I saw some pages I have either never seen or maybe never paid attention to before. She has a whole page dedicated to Women Only and Other Sites of Interest. Looking down a little on the left is a link titled Homeschool Links.

Enjoy!!
