I know that most of the folks here are doing a lot of knitting, but perhaps there are some that crochet as well??? I hope..lol.....i am in desperate need of a pattern for small thread crochet fans..maybe 2x3 inches.....i have plugged everything i can think of into google and checked out DMOZ..the antique ppern llibrary and all the Weldon;s that i have in my own library......if anyone knows of a pattern and where i could find it, i would be so appreciative....i would certainly be willing to buy a leaflet with some fan patterns in it.....



thanks so much...

It seems odd to say "Hello me" (lol)

I have managed to find 4 free patterns for you for miniature fans. The first one is for a pot pourri sachet which could be adapted by making just one section. The other 3 are for tiny fans made in crochet cotton.

rcty is a newsgroup for knitting *and* crocheting.... as well as other yarn related crafts. :o)

A real challenge, for sure! I went searching and found a lot of really pretty things made in thread.... my favorite that my oldest aunt made years ago (nut cup & saucer). Mind you, I didn't take the time to look at *every* page on the websites... but here are the two nicest websites with the most to offer that I found. Hopefully somewhere in amongst all of those patterns you can find what you are looking for. Sad thing is, I *know* that I have seen that pattern somewhere... but where is the mystery.

the pages, and good luck.... I hope you find the pattern you want.

Hi there! I enjoy making doll clothes, and crochet thread works well for that. :)

Hmmm... what if you use thread and a smaller crochet hook... I wonder if this pattern would work for you?

's another one... for a wedding though.http://www.crochetmemories.com/archive/june.htmlRats! Furhter down this page is a link to what is supposed to be "2 small fans" (I *knew* I had seen a pattern before, and this is likely where it was)... but it doesn't work anymore. This is also the site where I got the last link from.
