Free Knitting Pattern - Wednesday

It is day 3 of The Free Pattern Extravaganza here at LusciousGracious! Today Lucy presents Tie It On. This quick & simple pattern is an ideal starter pattern for kids of all ages. Beginning knitters, or those looking for a fast, fun project will both enjoy Tie It On. This is also Lucy's first written pattern. I'm sure it won't be her last, as she loves to knit things her own way.


You know how much we crave feedback here at LusciousGracious. Often resorting to bribery and promises of prizes just to get comments. Recently, we received some messages (no bribes required) from knitters who have used our patterns.

Andrea recently finished this beautiful bag using the tear version of my Tears 4 Spheres pattern. You can see more of her projects here, lots of great stuff.

Local knitting buddy, Letoya made this sphere version of Tears 4 Spheres , and this one. Thanks for sharing your great work, see you Saturday!

Fannie recently made this great bag using Kiki's colorwork tip/pattern. Fannie's blog is in French, which means the kids can read it, but not Mom & Dad. We just enjoy the pictures. I think Fannie may become Lily's favorite knitter. Not only does she blog in french (wonder how you say "blog" in French?), I just saw what appears to be a knitted platypus. I'll confirm the translation with Lily in the morning.

Anyone else have a finished LusciousGracious project to share? Please send us any comments, feedback, photos of finished projects, questions, or just a simple hello. Feel free to leave comments on the blog, even though there is no prize right now, or use our fancy form if you don't want to share with the whole world.

Tomorrow's preview:

Hey Lucy! I really love the tie that you made and designed. It's hard to find a tie that looks great and guys and girls, but I think this is the best one I've seen! Thank you so much for letting us use your pattern. The tie will make a great gift for a few people on my holiday list. Have a great rest of the week, and enjoy your knitting!!!!

That is definitely a platypus, which also happens to be my favorite animal as well.

Love the patterns guys, keep it up!

I am honored :) However the platypus (ornithorinque in French) design is not mine, it comes from this great book : A World of Knitted Toys by Kath Dalmeny
(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0715312243/)

And how do we say "Blog" in French? Un blog!

The bag is enjoying a great success here on the French Blogsphere, thanks again for sharing the design :)
