!), and other items I enjoy or are on my wish list!
While hunting around Google looking for a pattern for the crocheted Cats Afghan I saw on eBay but didn't bid on, I found a page at About.com which listed a Cats Afghan pattern available at FreePatterns.com (http://www.freepatterns.com/). So, I got my free account and, sure enough, there it was! The Cats Afghan pattern!
If you want this pattern, it and lots of other crochet and other crafts patterns are FREE at http://www.freepatterns.com/.
Later, I discovered (via Google) that the PDF file of the Cats Afghan pattern can also be found at:

HELP! I am trying to find the cat afghan pattern, but it is not available at either of the links. Where can I find this pattern? Thanks, Elizabeth
I am also trying to find the Garden Cat afghan. It is not on Free Patterns either. Where can I find it? Thanks, elizabeth
Hi, Elizabeth - There are many many patterns on eBay. Here's a link to the Garden Cat pattern:

I too was unable to find the Cats Afghan at freepatterns.com. It isn't on eBay right now either. Keep checking eBay. You could try posting a "wanted" listing on eBay to see if someone has the pattern who may want to auction it to you.

Looking for Dawn Kemp's pattern "Baby Things" afghan. Know where I could find it??
Hi, Rose - I *love* online treasure hunts!
I was able to find a reference to a "Baby Things Afghan" at:
http://www.plunderhere.com/auction/cgi-bin/auction/view?cmd=view&listingID=275092
which is an already ended auction for Crochet for Baby, Book Two, a booklet by Leisure Arts. There wasn't an indication that the Baby Things Afghan was designed by a Dawn Kemp, however.
A search for "Crochet Baby Things" led me to this website on which there is a larger photo of the booklet cover and I can see that the booklet's number is 906:

On eBay, I found this completed auction for the Crochet for Baby, Book Two booklet:
http://cgi.ebay.com/LA-906-crochet-for-baby-2-sundress-afghans-layettes_W0QQitemZ260147606353QQihZ016QQcategoryZ41229QQcmdZViewItem
There are photos of the booklet pages - check it out to see if it has the afghan you're looking for. If so, you can keep looking on eBay for the booklet and try to win it in an auction.
Good luck!
I am DESPERATELY trying to locate this Cats Afghan pattern. I have tried all the links, websites, sellers on ebay - to no avail. If there is ANYONE out there that can help I'd be grateful. Willing to pay charges. Helen Heynike - wilfrid@lantic.net
I am search for the graphs for two afghans in the Bernat Afghan Book #132. The ones that I need are for "Sunflower" and " Danish Bell Pull". Can you help me out?
Hi, Janet - Check this post on my blog for info about Marion who says she has charts for the Bernat Afghan Book #132 for sale.
Check Ebay under "cats crocheted afghan pattern" and there is one but it comes in a book for $14.99.
