Announcing the Holiday Stashdown Crochet-A-Long 2015
I’m excited to be joining the Holiday Stashdown Crochet-a-long 2015! I’ve teamed up with 14 other crochet designers to share 15 Free Crochet Patterns for your holiday gift giving this season. CAL starts Monday, get those hooks ready!
Every Monday from September 14 through December 21, 2015, a new crochet pattern will be posted on one of our 15 blogs. Each designer will post their free pattern on their blog on their scheduled date. Each pattern will be a one-skein project or less, so you can work from your own existing yarn stash to make a great holiday gift in no time.
How to join in the Holiday Stashdown CAL…
- You can join in by crocheting each of the patterns as you have time.
- Share your progress and post pictures of your finished projects. Tag your projects and posts #HolidayStashdownCAL2015 on all social media.
- Chat with other crocheters in our Facebook and Ravelry Groups
- By the end of the crochet-a-long, you’ll have 15 great gifts for the holiday season.
