Helpful websites

I thought it might be useful to start a thread with some useful websites that may be of interest to other members. Here are a few that I know of - please add any you think of, I find it really interesting checking out links to sites that other members have referred.

www.newconceptions.com (has some free baby patterns) m-sewing.com (free sewing patterns) www.flickr.com (has the flickr up for swap group run by Burdastyle members) purlbee.com (free sewing/knitting projects) wkdesigner.wordpress.com (more free patterns)

Feel free to add anything.

studying...

I already started knitting, so I went on searching some great websites for learning more... This one is the best, I think: Garnstudio & Drops Design
