Day 25: Do you have a crocheting book or a place where you keep patterns, ideas, size measurements? Post a picture of it!

Yes I do! Here they are...




The Hello Kitty book is my first pattern book, where I started writing down patterns I found online that I liked, and later my own patterns.
The 2 sketchbooks are for, obviously, my sketches for new ami's. 90% of my patterns start life as a doodle in one of these 2 books.


The Monsties Sketches and Pattern


Knitted Character Pattern

As you can see - I like to make doodles of what is going through my brain at the time first. I can leave the pictures there for ages without trying to make a pattern out of them, and often go back to them months later. I also write my rough patterns in this book alongside the doodles. I don't write down the proper wording, I just jot down how many stitches should be at the end of each row. Might not make much sense to others, but it will do for me!
