Where do you get patterns from?

Where do you get the bulk of your patterns from? Online? Magazines? Back of yarn? Pattern Books?

I tend to get most of my stuff on Lion Brand Yarn and check ravelry but never wind up getting anything I actually do there. I just feel like I can never find what I am looking for anywhere.

Re: Where do you get patterns from?

i use ravelry A LOT
i also have a few magazines/books, but i almost always go back to ravelry

the reason i like ravelry as much as i do is because if the pattern has been made by a few people, i get to check out the variations on a pattern. this helps me decide if it will fit the way i want it to fit on a different body type. it will tell me the finish if i decide to substitute the yarn, or change the colors.

I check all the major yarn companies web sites (Lion Brand, Red Heart, Lily, Patons, Bernat) They have a lot of cute stuff!
