Try the following websites – both have instructions and photos showing how to crochet cables and there are some patterns but don’t know if they are sweater patterns:http://crochet.about.com/library/weekly/aa062798.htmhttp://www.woolcrafting.com/crochet-cables.htmlGood luck

you know what, instead of a book i would recommend http://www.knittinghelp.com because they have great videos to get you started (and to keep you going, for that matter). For materials, I would recommend the cheapest yarn you can find at Walmart, which is Red Heart Super Saver. Get it in worsted weight (the one with a big 4 on the back), most of it is, so it shouldn’t be hard to find. For needles I recommend a size 10 or 10 1/2, its a good size for learning. See if you can find ones that are made out of bamboo, I don’t think its good to start out with aluminum since they are slippery and heavy, I don’t think Walmart has bamboo, so you might have to settle for plastic. You can find bamboo needles and all of these materials at craft strores like Michaels, Hobby Lobby, Joann Fabrics, and A.C. Moore. Good luck! I hope to see you on knittinghelp.com!

I would also agree that it’s great to learn both crafts, but I would start with crochet first as I think that’s easier to learn (personal experience). Another thing to keep in mind is that there are two main knitting styles — “Continental”, in which the yarn is held the same way that you do with crochet, and “English”, in which the yarn is held in the right hand — opposite of crochet and Continental. Many knitters who say they have trouble learning crochet, and many crocheters who say they have trouble learning to knit have problems when they do English style knitting because it means having to learn how to hold the yarn all over again. Once you learn how to knit in one style, it becomes a bit easier to learn the other style if you want. (And it is good to eventually know both if you really get into knitting) So I would encourage you to learn crochet, then Continental style knitting, then English style if you’d like. Just “feels” like a more logical progression to me and others I have discussed this with.It’s also great if you can find someone who does these crafts to be able to help you with hints and such that you can only get watching and talking to people. Look for classes at a yarn store or your local library, or check out book stores or coffee shops to see if they have knitting/crocheting groups that meet there and stop by. We are mostly a very friendly group of people who love to share our craft with others and always happy to bring a newbie into the fold.

Have you checked out Crochetpatterncentral.com? I always check there first! There are tons of doll clothes patterns there(see sources). If you see something you like but it’s not the right size you can probably adjust the pattern to make it work. Let me know if you need help doing that.Check out this thread on Crochetville, too, there was a whole discussion about doll clothes for 18″ dolls:http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showthread.php?t=41666

I’ve flown into and out of Toronto and into and out of multiple airports in the US, the European Union, and China over the past 6 or 7 years. I’ve been hassled over a forgotten water bottle, a metal hair clip that set the detectors off, and a banana that I didn’t eat on a trans-Atlantic flight (the dog at Customs sniffed it out and “alerted,” which diverted me and my contraband banana into the special line for fruit smugglers), but never about my knitting. I do use circular needles, though, and suggest that you do the same. I also suggest that you go to the web site of the airline you’ll be using and check to see if they have a bulletin about knitting. Within 72 hours of your flight, you may want to call the airline to verify their current policy about knitting needles and crochet hooks–policies are subject to change at any time. In addition, it’s the security personnel, not the airline employees, who make the on-the-spot decisions and give you 30 seconds to get rid of the item deemed to be dangerous. Is it any wonder that I prefer train travel for domestic mass transit? The seats are wider, there’s lots more leg room, you can plug in your laptop computer or take a nap (with your feet up) without fear of waking up with your head on a stranger’s shoulder, there’s a dining car most of the time so you don’t risk dumping a meal in your lap, and you can bring as much water on board as you can carry. Nobody blinks twice at any knitting you want to work on.
