Looking for old Patons baby patterns
Hi everyone,
I'm having a real challenge trying to locate some old Patons leaflets, and you are going to think I'm whacky wanting them. Hmmm...I'm among friends, so maybe you won't think I'm that whacky after all When my oldest son was born I crocheted a shawl from Patons leaflet #129, it's #6 Crochet Block Shawl with Shell Border. I am wanting to make a second of these shawls, so that I can give one to my younger son when he has his first baby. I'm also trying to locate Patons leaflet #111 because I want to knit the Leaf and Lace Baby Set. My Mom had knit that for me to bring my babies home from the hospital. I would like to make a second set for my younger son too. Patons leaflet #117 also has some baby patterns that Mom had knit, if I can locate a copy of that too, I would be thrilled. I had these patterns, but they've gone missing, and I'm driving myself nuts trying to find copies via the local thrift stores. I've even resorted to phoning some of my Mom's old girl friends trying to locate a copy, but so far no luck Many thanks for any suggestions you might have as to how I can find these patterns. thanks...Linda D. in B.C., Canada |

Looking for old Patons baby patterns
Many thanks to Shirley and Bruce for providing the links to
crochet4you. I had found that site, but it rather irks me to be living in Canada, sending my order to a Canadian address with a Canadian credit card, but having to pay in U.S. funds...seems a little odd. If I can't find the patterns any other way, I guess I will have to bite the bullet and just do it. with thanks, Linda D. in B.C., Canada |
