    Sorry, grandmothersways and Andy, but this category is already a mess with far too many sub-cats.

    What, exactly, is a 'Holiday' pattern????

    We don't need this category - it would be a mess - both knitting &crochet and I think that in the US it means "stuff for special days" like Christmas etc.

    Where would it end? Reindeer/Snowmen patterns for Xmas; Chicks etc. for Easter? Many of these would fall into the Intarsia sub, anyway.

    Problem is, the boys probably have little knowledge of knitting/crochet patterns (sorry, guys - don't mean to sound sexist) and would go along with any request for sub cats which is already making listing in the category a bit of a nightmare.

    With adequate key words in the title, the knitting/crochet category could be pared down considerably.

    Yes, I agree - knitting is the problem. If you look at crochet it is very tidy - just clothing, home & other (which were my suggestions, btw.)

    I think 'Seasonal' would be better than 'Holiday'

    But Seasonal sounds like Summer, winter etc

    and I'm not sure it's a useful category anyway.

    Surely there are enough key words in that title (just an eg) to eliminate many of the sub cats in knitting & crochet.
