New crochet pattern book offers bath mitt patterns for bath-time fun

Patterns in Fun-Time Bath Mitts are written in the easy skill level so that every crocheter, including beginners, can create bath mitts that double as puppets. Patterns include a frog, a teddy bear, a bunny, a penguin, a duck, a seahorse and a whale.

The book provides easy-to-follow crochet instructions for each mitt, with general instructions that include an illustrated stitch guide and a crochet abbreviations chart. Fun-Time Bath Mitts, and the products used in the book, can be purchased from local craft, fabric and variety stores or from the Annie's Attic catalog at AnniesAttic.com.

Annie's Attic published its first needlecraft pattern in 1975 and quickly became one of America's premier sources for innovative and classic designs, especially in crochet. The first patterns were sold individually, but eventually were published in the Annie's Attic catalog, which also features key needlecraft supplies.

The goal of Annie's Attic is to produce a wide variety of high quality needlecraft publications and craft patterns in a number of special interest areas, with patterns known for exceptional instructional accuracy and clarity, and for brilliant, creative photography.

Annie's Attic joined the DRG family of brands in 1996. Other company brands include Clotilde, House of White Birches and The Needlecraft Shop.

DRG is a third-generation, privately owned company operating two major business divisions -- one in magazine and book publishing and consumer catalogs, and the other in subscription and product fulfillment. DRG products and publications are sold direct to consumers through the company's catalogs and Internet sites at DRGnetwork.com.
