Tame My Mind

I am trying to find a pattern for a baby blanket which began w/ four circles in the middle then crocheted around the circles which made it a granny square. do you have this pattern? or know where I can find it?

I need the instructions to the Indian Design Afghan in the Coats & Clark Book 291. Can you e-mail to me or can I buy the book.

Please reply

I have the book but it got damp and some of the lines are hard to read.

I'm trying to find the chart for the Spring Bouquet afghan pattern in Bernat Booklet 132. I would appreciate any help you can give.

I am trying to find the chart to complete the Spring Bouquet afghan shown in Bernat Book 132. I have the book, but need the chart for the cross stich. Please help!

I don't have the chart. The pattern instructions says the chart can be ordered, but the book is very old and I doubt that address is still valid.

I did, however, do a search in Google and found that you can order the chart (aka graph) from this website:
http://www.heritageshoppe.com/heritage/essays/tunisian.html

Thanks for the reply. However, I have the book and was looking for the chart. I, too, searched Google and found the site you refer to, but when I tried to order the chart from the Yarn Shoppe that was mentioned as per the Heritage Shoppe site, my mail was returned without being opened and when I called the shop, they were rather curt, saying they no longer had the charts. It seems the chart has fallen off the face of the earth.

I am looking for the Leisure Arts Leaflet 191 Baby's Best... by Helen Passey. I see you have it in your inventory. I am looking for the rainbow afghan pattern. I made it once and have lost the pattern and wish to make it again. Is your book for sale?

I would like to see what the cross stitch picture's look like. Lily of the valley with other thing's in the picture

I need pages 10, 11, 12, 13, of Baby"s Best to Knit and Crochet by Helen Passey
Please send me these four pages and hte price for them. thank you.

Hello,

Thanks!

Hi, Sandy - Check eBay. That's where I got my copy. I've seen it in at least 7-8 auctions in the last 5 months or so. Search eBay for this item description: baby best knit crochet

I have been looking for years for the cross-stitch pattern and pictures of full "Spring Garden" afghan that was in a leisure arts magazine years ago. They all used Bernat tapestry yarns. Thanks

After years of looking , I found the chart for Spring Bouquet. The only problem is that the pansie sections do not have a good picture to pick wool colours from. It would be nice to find an old Bernat color chart to go by. Chart has the symbols and color name, no number & no good picture to go by. The middle section of lillies and roses is easy.

I don't have the chart for the Spring Bouquet afghan. The pattern instructions says the chart can be ordered, but the book is very old and I doubt that address is still valid.

A month or so ago, I saw an auction on eBay for a completed Spring Bouquet afghan - just like the one in the book. The price was $1,700.00. I don't think it sold, but that person may have had the chart (unless the blanket wasn't made by that person, of course!). I have been unable to find that item again by searching eBay.

Cheryl,
I need the My Hometown Quilt pattern. Let me know how much.

I am trying to find a pattern for the scripter afghan. I started to make one for my daughter and I lost it. If you could find one for me it will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Annie's Attic 1993 pattern booklet intitled Baby's Heirloom Wardrobe. I've lost the insides to my copy and I use it all the time. Help me find another please!

Has anyone made the afghan from Native American Afghan and Pillows by Dawn Kemp? I have the instruction booklet, but it only shows graphs for 6 squares and the afghan has a total of 9. I have the drum, totem, rug, bow and arrow, peace pipe and vase. Which ones am I missing?

I would like to buy the leaflet 191 Leisure arts
Baby's Best to knit and crochet desigs by helen Passey

I am looking for Leisure Arts Leaflet # 191 Baby's Best to knot and chrochet designs by Hele Passey

Do you know where I can locate it and if so where can I order it and what is the cost?

Hope you can help me. I noticed that you have a pattern book called Native American Afghan and Pillow (cactus and jug). I have been looking for this pattern for some time and recently received part of the pattern. Am missing the first page which contains the instructions for the afghan. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I'm just today catching up on comments...

None of the patterns I've collected are for sale. And, it is against copyright laws to copy patterns for distribution.

With regard to getting Leisure Arts Baby's Best to Knit and Crochet by Helen Passey (Leisure Arts leaflet #191), Native American Afghan and Pillows (Annie's Attic leaflet #8B017), or any other pattern, book or magazine, I recommend searching eBay or other online auction websites.

You may have to do it for a few weeks or months, but you'll probably find what you're looking for.

Good luck!

Hi, Su Ross - There are only 6 patterns for the 9 squares of the Native American Afghan (Annie's Attic leaflet #8B017). You can choose any of the 6 patterns to repeat to make 9 squares.

I am also looking the first page for the Native American Afghan and Pillows (Jug and cactus). Have checked everywhere I can think of to find. Can anyone help.

I am also looking for Hellen Passey's Leasure Arts leaflet #191 Baby's Best-Crochet Rainbow Blanket,Jacket and booties

I am also looking for the pattern called Native American Afghan and Pillow. Have only part of it. Can someone help me????????/

Hi,
I was wondering what book or leaflet the Glendola Hodges snowman, chimney cat ect. patterns came from. I have searched and searched and cannot find any information anywhere? Thanks for your help.
Raenell

Hi, Raenell - I bought those patterns on eBay. The pages are from a book or a magazine, but there is no information other than page numbers provided on the pages. I have seen a few listings for filet crochet books with designs by Glendola Hodges - it is possible that these patterns could be in one of those books/leaflets, but I don't know which one.
-Cheryl

Hi, Linda - I just looked at eBay - There are 3 eBay lists for this pattern. The link to each listing are too long to post here, but I just emailed them to you:

$5.95 current bid price
$34.99 buy it now
$35.00 buy it now

Good luck!
-Cheryl

Cheryl,
I would like to find this pattern shown on your site. The link is no longer working and there is no pattern at the Coats and Clark website. My search did not give me any further information on where to find the pattern.
Please direct me to where I can find and print this pattern:

Looking for Crochet By the Sea collection by Barbara Anderson copyright 1983. Would appreciate any help in finding this pattern. Thanks.

Hi Linda - This pattern is available right now on eBay in 1 auction. The current price is $21.06. You could try looking on eBay every week or so until you find it at a price you consider reasonable. Sometimes people don't know the value of what they're listing - I've found rare pattern books included with a bunch of other patterns for a low Buy-It-Now price.

A search using Google showed one website selling 3 of the 9 patterns individually (mermaid, blue crab, lobster). Good luck with your hunt!

i'm looking for a baby blanket ..that has the word baby in the middle of it.. i don't know ..who made ..can you help

thank you robin moore

Hi, Robin - There are several ways a blanket with a word in it can be done. For example, the letters could be cross-stitched onto squares or onto the blanket itself, filet crochet can be used to spell out the word, crochet a square for each letter using Tunisian or double-ended crochet.

For a pattern, I recommend searching Google or keeping an eye on eBay auctions. There are a few websites that list links of free crochet patterns available on the Web.

Here is a pattern for Baby's ABC Blanket:
http://www.crochetnmore.com/babysabcsafghan.htm
You could crochet two B squares, one A square, one Y square and the rest of the blanket could be solid (no letter) squares.

Here is a pattern for a Personalized Baby Blanket:
http://www.crochetkim.com/patterns/perbaby.html
Instead of using the baby's name, you could use the word BABY in lowercase or uppercase or mixedcase letters.

Have fun!
-Cheryl

I am still trying to find the chart for the Spring Bouquet afghan in Bernat Booklet 132. Every lead so far has been a dead end. If anyone has anything to offer I would be thrilled to know about it.

Hi, Marianne - As you know, the chart is difficult to find. But it can be obtained depending on how much you want to pay for it and how diligent you are with regular searches.

Tonight, a Google search reveals that the chart for the Spring Bouquet afghan was offered through eBay in an auction that early January 2007:
here

and another auction that ended early November 2006:
here

I've seen the chart in other eBay auctions too over the past few years, although I don't see it right now. You can setup an auto-email to you from eBay when an auction is added that matches your search terms - such as: spring bouquet bernat

Good luck!
-Cheryl

I am looking for an OLD pattern called "Scraps of Beauty." Do you have it?

Lisa

Hi, Lisa - I have an old pattern called Scraps to Beauty Afghans, Leisure Arts leaflet 163 published in 1980, with 3 crocheted afghans.

eBay is one of the best places to find older pattern leaflets and books. There are about 18 eBay auctions for the Scraps to Beauty Afghans leaflet - here are 2 of them:

Oh, and when doing a search on eBay for "scraps of beauty" (the exact name you asked me about) - using quotes around the name - I see many auctions for an older leaflet called Afghan Book 2 that includes an afghan called Scraps of Beauty. One of those auctions is:

I am looking for Leisure Arts Pattern #191 for rainbow baby blanket & sweater set. Do you know where I might purchase this pattern.

Hi, Nancy - The *best* place to find Baby's Best to Knit and Crochet, Leisure Arts leaflet #191 is eBay at http://www.ebay.com. I see it offered by itself or included in an auction with a bunch of other patterns. Sometimes the person offering it knows the leaflet is in demand, sometimes they don't. I recommend saving searches in your eBay account that will email you as auctions meeting your search criteria are offered. I would create several searches for a variety of keywords and phrases, such as:

baby's best knit crochet
"baby's best"
leisure arts 191
best's best 191

Make sure the item description is checked for these searches. And, the category should be "All Categories".

Currently, eBay has these auctions:

I am looking for the Baby Heirloom Wardrobe 87H30

I have a pattern that I am looking for, I have it in spanish and I am trying to find a translation of it but it is starting to look like it might be impossible to find! The pattern name is Corazones y Diamantes...and me being in a spanish class I know that it means Hearts and Diamonds. Please help.

I have some charts for Toltec Bird, Spring Bouquet and Danish Bell Pull if any of your customers are interested. These afghans are in Bernat Book #132.

Im looking for the pattern published in 1977 by Anis Duncan called Picture Afghans. I have half of the desert sunset done and cant finish with out the pattern. Help Help....Chris

I have been searching for the charts for Toltec Bird afghan since I got the book. I would like to know where I can get it. Would also be interested in the other charts that aren't in the book.

Hi Ladies! I'll act as a go-between to put you two in touch with each other...

Marion: You left a comment on my blog that you have the charts.
And
Tina: You left a comment that you're looking for the Toltec Bird and possibly other charts from that book.

Please contact each other to work out the details. [I've emailed both of you each other's email addresses.]

Thanks!
-Cheryl

Cheryl, Could you also put me in touch with the person who has the charts for the Bernat Spring Bouquet? My grandmother made this for my aunt many years ago and I would like to make one for my SIL. Thanks in advance.

-Mare

HERE'S AN UPDATE regarding the charts / graphs for afghans in Bernat Afghans leaflet 132!

I checked with Marion today and she sent me the following update. Please contact her directly at mvanstone@rogers.com if you want to purchase one or more of the charts / graphs:

I still have charts for Toltec Bird, Spring Bouquet and Danish Bell Pull.

My Price is $30 USD for each chart with wool samples for Spring Bouquet for $15 USD more. This includes shipping to Canada and the USA.

I was reading the comments regarding the pattern charts for Bernat Afghan Book 132, specifically for Spring Bouquet. If anyone is interested they can contact me -- I sent for all 4 patterns from that book and still have them.

[Update from Cheryl August 8, 2007] Faith responded that I may post her email address so people can contact her directly. It is:

Hi, Faith - Thanks for letting me know! Comments on my blog do not include the commenter's email address, so do you give me permission to post your email address with your comment so people can contact you directly?

Hi Cheryl, I too am looking for the embroidery charts from the Bernat afghan book 132 (this has been an on-again/off-again search for me - I'm currently on-again). I'd love to get in touch with Faith (if she doesn't want to post her email as you've asked, I'd appreciate it if you'd forward mine to her.) Now that I've found your page I'll take a look through my stash and see if I have any information that others are looking for. Thanks, Karen

Hi, Karen - I've forwarded your message to Faith via email. Let me know what happens.

Hi Cheryl, Like many others I am looking for the charts to the patterns (SB, TB, & DP) in the Bernat afghan book 132. I would like to contact Faith about the charts she has. Would you forward my email to her for me? Thank you, Charity

Hi, Charity - I've forwarded your message to Faith.

It was a book of 2" granny squares to make childrens afgans there were cars and trucks in it as well as some duck pattern and others as well. I have been checking everywhere with no avail. Please help thanks Lynda

"I have a pattern that I am looking for, I have it in spanish and I am trying to find a translation of it but it is starting to look like it might be impossible to find! The pattern name is Corazones y Diamantes...and me being in a spanish class I know that it means Hearts and Diamonds. Please help." This was posted by Mary but there was no way to contact her. I found the pattern last week in Spanish as well. I did find the English version @ the web site for COATS and CLARK. Its very pretty!

I have joined the growing number of people who are trying to find the charts to Toltec Bird, et al. from Bernat's Book 132 of afghans. I'll ry your suggestions and if I find any info I'll let you know so you can spread the word. If I were to get permission from Bernat, who made the book to start with, would it then be OK to give copies of the charts to other people who would like to use them. If the copyright holder gave permission that would be OK, wouldn't it? It's not like they are still selling it. I'd really like to know. Thanks, Suzanne

Hi, Suzanne - I'm not an expert on copyright, but if the person/company holding the copyright gives permission, then it seems logical that it is OK. Keep in mind that the author is not necessary the copyright holder - then again Bernat may not be the copyright holder either. You should definitely inquire Bernat about distributing the charts before doing so - to avoid any trouble with copyright.

Hi, Liz - I found it there also and let her know by email. Thanks!

Hi,
Do you still have the pattern for Charlie the Turtle Slow But Sweet Tissue Holder and Turtle Soap Holder and if so how much is the cost? I am trying to do a bathroom for my granddaughter for Xmas and the patterns are perfect.

Hi, Doris - I recommend frequent searches on ebay.com - that is where I've found many of the patterns in my collection. Good luck!

Hi, Samantha - Your message got lost in my email inbox! I, however, don't have information about the toltec bird pattern. I understand that there is an embroidery chart that needed to be ordered separately from the booklet. Sometimes (very rate) the embroidery chart may be available on ebay.com.

A woman named Marion left a comment on my blog about a year ago indicating she had the charts for the Toltec Bird and other afghans in the Bernat 132 booklet. She said it was ok to forward her email address to people interested in buying the charts - her email address is mvanstone@rogers.com.

Cheryl-
In January, Nancy was looking for the Holly Afghan Leaflet AB-01. You located the magazine the photo of the afghan was in but not the Leaflet with the instructions. Do you know if she ever found the Leaflet?
Thank you.

Cheryl, Nancy and Carrie.
Holly Afghan Leaflet AB-01.

Put me on the list. It's been about 3 to 4 years I've been looking for this pattern. I even contacted the magazine and no pattern is availible for it.

So I desided to make my own.

Laurie

Hi, Laurie - I just did a search on ebay for: McCall's Afghans 1975 - and here is an auction for the McCall's Handcrafts Afghans Volume III 1975 with a pretty green and red diamond afghan on the cover. I don't know if the pattern is in the magazine, but most of the time magazines *do* have the patterns for the pictures.

The auction is #330288290822.

Update: Laurie replied that she already has the magazine, but that the pattern isn't included in the magazine - it must be ordered. She contacted McCall's and was informed that the pattern is no longer available.

Laurie & Cheryl
I to have the magazine, but no pattern. Laurie how far have you gotten on charting the design?
I used part of the pattern on some pot holders for christmas.

Nancy and Carrie can you email about this. I got a lead.

I am looking for the CROCHET pattern for Praying Hands. Do you know where I can purchase it. I found it twice on Ebay , however I got outbid both times.

I am looking for an old crochet pattern for baby blanket. The blanket is surrounded by block of bottles, rattles, baby blocks and buggies (as much as I can remember). I believe it was a Leisure Arts Leaflet but am not positive. I lent the pattern to a "friend" and she moved away with it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Dianna

I found many of my old crochet patterns at the vintage Knits Web site. "Vintage Knits" . They not only have old crochet patterns but also old knitting patterns.

Thank you,

Bernat no longer carries tapestry thread. You will need to use the newer threads, perhaps anchor and the numers will not match. You will have to do your own matching.

Thank you,
