Something a Little Different

I'm poking around for some knit and crochet ideas that are a little different.

Lion Brand Yarn has a pretty Tunisian crochet afghan that can be done with a regular crochet hook since you only hold a few stitches on the hook at a time. Here's the link to the pattern: http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/L20319.html

I think it looks bright, cheerful, and warm. It would be wonderful if I aimed towards doing one for next fall.

On the other end of the scale, here's a light, out-on-the-town crocheted shawl. (A little more advanced skill might be required for this one.)

This looks like an airy crocheted summer top. http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/L20500.html

This is called a knit pattern. It's a pom-pom pillow, all soft and nice.

Maybe you would like to try making a purse?

And a spare for the knitters. This was just too interesting to pass up.

Whatever you pick,
