Wallet *PATTERN!*

I was think about what I should knit.  I couldn't decide.  So I was looking through a knitting book I have and found a pattern for a wallet! Then I thought, hmm, I bet I can change this pattern a bit so I can make a really cool wallet! I have made a wallet before, but it was actually a failure.  It's completely awful, and the funny part about it is, I still have the wallet! So now I have a new pattern that I'm trying out, and I decided to give you a chance, too! My pattern may be a bit confusing, as it has a pocket for change.  I also add the abbreviations to all my patterns, and there meanings, so people can learn them if they don't know them!

Fishy! *Pattern!*

This is a pattern I altered.  Meep found a pattern online about how to make fish, and this is an altered version of the Angelfish! Very easy, and if you're looking to sell them they go fast! CA, and CB are optional.  You may use only one color, or you can knit stripes! I, personally, prefer to use two different yarns at once, then switch to two other yarns.

Animal Shelter Idea

Are there any animal lovers who would like to help animals, while knitting?  Well then you're reading the right post! An idea hit me last night.  A 4-H group in my area ask people for knit squares, then they make blankets for people in homeless shelters.  Now I'm the kind of person who cares more about animals than about humans..... So I didn't really want to use up my yarn in this project.  I have.  So I came up with the idea of asking people to knit squares, any size.  I'll sew them together to make a blanket, and after we have a few blankets we donate to the animal shelter! If you know anybody in your area who knits ask them to help you! And it doesn't have to be for the animal shelter if you care more about people than animals.  Bye!
