Favourite Free Knitting patterns:

Knitty Knitty is a highly polished magazine full of free patterns with plenty of photos and explanations.

Knitlist A good summary of free patterns - some even have photos.

Socknitters All things socky.

Dishcloth Boutique Perhaps way too fancy for the actual subject matter, but its good to know its there.

Planet Shoup - home of the original Moebius Scarf.

Wool Works Patterns A more bare bones collection of patterns, many in plain text.

In January 2008 I signed up for Ravelry - kind of like facebook for knitters. At this time its in beta testing and only available after applying and waiting for a week or two. If you're on it already I'm down as veroicon. Apart from the fun part of sharing projects, it is great as a database of patterns, many freely available.
