It is National Crochet Month 2017. I’ve been working on crocheting simple washcloths to pair with specialty soap for the Women’s Co-Op auction coming up. My last full project was a lap blanket for a Christmas gift. I’ve been working on a lot of other stuff that has taken my attention from crocheting. This would seem to be a good time to make some plans.
In the past, I have had a number of projects on tap for National Crochet Month 2017 but I never seem to accomplish much. I’m still part way through the sweater I started a year ago and really should drag that back out. I had a fun project in mind for a gift, but just haven’t gotten around to working on it. This is the month! A few more washcloths. Finish the sweater. Fun vintage project.
I have picked up a collection of 29 cent vintage crochet pamphlets that have all kinds of ideas in them. Wouldn’t you just love to sink your toes into this flowered bath mat?
Here’s the plan:
March 1 – 5: organize current yarn stash and catalog, finish remaining auction washcloths.
March 6 – 12: Work on sweater
March 13 – 19: Start and finish special vintage-inspired project
March 20 – 26: Work on sweater
March 27 – 31: Finish sweater, identify pattern for lightweight crochet shell or cardigan to work on next
Are you planning anything fun for National Crochet Month 2017?
