Pattern Suggestions

A good site for free patterns is Lion Brand Yarns - easy afghan patterns and many of their yarns are machine washable (or you can substitute). Bernat, Berroco, etc. all have free patterns available, too.

Here are 3 patterns from Amy that are fun and/or easy to knit - we both I really love the pinwheel one and it works up beautifully in variegated or self-patterning yarn.
Pinwhee Blanket
Berocco's Artic Throw

And look for the Farnsworth Blanket pattern at Lion Brand Yarns

If you want to knit squares and sew them together (very portable & easy in the hot weather), you can find patterns at Knit-a Square. This also allows you to use up all those leftover skeins you have around or maybe pick up ends of lots on sale at your local craft store.

Have fun!
Thanks!Amy & Dena
