I know some of you guys knit ([livejournal.com profile] perclexed, [livejournal.com profile] reedfem, [livejournal.com profile] babs_sg1, not looking at you *in particular* ::grin::)

Does anyone know of a good site for knitting patterns? Either freebies or paid-for downloads, I'm not that fussy - except, not vintage, 'cos I'm not anywhere near that tiny ;-) I've taken the notion for knitting again and I have a quantity of cotton chenille (knits as 4-ply) which I quite fancy for a cardigan or a shrug, something along those lines. I just don't have a pattern. I've kind of exhausted all the sites I can think of, and shops that sell patterns are getting kind of like hens' teeth over here. So, can anyone help me out with somewhere new?

Most of the yarn manufacturers have patterns on their websites. I think most of the big ones I use have already been mentioned. I'll add e-PatternsCentral (http://www.e-patternscentral.com/), The Daily Knitter (http://www.dailyknitter.com/) and Knitting on the Net (http://www.knittingonthenet.com/).

Thank you :-) I've found another couple of patterns I like on The Daily Knitter and Knitting on the Net - alas, no four ply cardigan yet though :-( Safely bookmarked though, for me to keep an eye on :-)
