Here it is Monday again. I really truly mean to post days other than for Freebie Monday, but life gets in the way. Here's today's offerings:

Pattern Making has two lovely designs - one is a beautiful afghan

and the second is for granny square slippers for the whole family:

Since it's October, pumpkins seem to be a primary decoration. Here's a filet pumpkin chart:

or maybe you'd prefer a few amigurumi pumpkin patterns:

Or to get into the fall mood (and warm up a bit), here's a falling leaf afghan pattern:

Red Heart has a website for the free patterns that come on the ball bands. So if you misplace that pattern (or maybe you never seen it), here's a place for you to check out:

Somebody out there has finished the Lion Brand crochet along and has a photo of her finished sampler - check it out, it's very pretty:

Have you been looking for a Cthulhu pattern? Here's one for you and the wings look great.

Wormie has put her free patterns on one blog - Wormie's Pattern Place:

This isn't a pattern but it may give you some ideas to do with plain t-shirts:

Here's another site that has free patterns - Sue's Crochet and Knitting patterns

Noreen Crone-Findlay makes another appearance in this blog with her "Around the World" baby sweater and hat for Caron. Very cute:

As usual, I am not being financially supported by bribes or gifts by any of the sites I have mentioned. I keep waiting, but I think everybody's just too broke to do it;) - maybe when the economy takes an upturn;)
