OT - more about crafts - crochet

[Guest guest]

One of my resolutions for the new year is to make myself a crochet vest. While searching around for yardage requirements I found this list, Plus Size Crochet:

Plussize_crochet/messages

I just signed up now and see there are no files or links yet, mainly because the list is still pretty new.

This page:

http://www.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/lionbrand/index.fcgi?page=http://www.lionbrand.com/content-crochetPatternIndex.html (if the link doesn't work, go to http://www.lionbrand.com and look for the free patterns)

has some plus sized patterns, but not too many for a relative beginner like me. They *do* have the pattern for my all time favorite vest, just like the ones my grandmother had made me. I cried when they got invaded by those weevils and had to be tossed! To see what I mean, look for the 60's vest. It looks like I just might be able to handle this one.

If anyone has a Granny Vest plus sized pattern, please either add it to the list's Files section at 100-plus/files/ or send it to the list and mark it OT. I'm sure others here would like it, too.

Woo Hoo!!
