Warm Up America Patterns

Several of you have asked me for guidance on the 7x9 swatches for the Warm Up America project.  I took several pictures tonight of the swatches I have and will add them to the Charity Knits photo album to the right with the complete directions.  Depending on my mood and needles at hand, I used 7s, 8s, 9s, or 10s to knit my swatches and have patterns for many sizes of needles. 

Please be patient with me.  This "publishing" project will take me quite a while as I have to get a decent photograph of each swatch and then write out the pattern.  I'm sure everyone's gauge will differ slightly, but at least it will give you a starting point and you won't have to reinvent the wheel completely.  I found that once I tested the swatch and got it correct, it was best to make 2-4 swatches of the same stitch to save time and increase knitting efficiency.

Please check back often as I will update the photo album regularly and add new swatch patterns as I make them.
