I think the Lion yarn website has some free patterns where they show you how to use yarn in other ways besides knitting/crocheting, like wrapping around styrofoam balls to make ornaments and such.
I have only knitted a scarf before and wanted to try my hand at knitting a baby sweater. My mom suggested this pattern and I have started it, I wanted to share it b/c it looks like a good pattern for true newbies like me.
I am trying it in a variegated 4 ply lion yarn - I can't remember the name of it, it's kind of heathery looking. It's really more of a jacket than a sweater I think since it doesn't close up. I was thinking I might put snaps on it so it closes.
