Free Liberty Bell Crochet Pattern
Hi, everyone!
I am still working on kitty, but I wanted to take today to share a pattern with you. I haven’t found much time to design this week, and when I did, I had to scrap the things I was working on because they came out terribly.
And, I have been getting my house cleaned up some. When nice weather gets here, I don’t want to spend my days cleaning. I love taking my daughter to the park and letting her ride her scooter.
Anyway, here is the picture and the pattern before I forget!

Now, I am off to take my daughter to the mall. She said she “wants to go spend a fortune”. I know what she wants…a new Webkinz. Which means, I won’t be sharing many patterns in the near future, as I won’t be able to get on the computer!
I hope you enjoy the pattern. A little early for 4th of July crochet, but there are some folks who are still patriotic year-round, not just on the 4th of July!
