NEW CROCHET A LONG FOR 2014

"12 DESIGNS ON A HOOK" CROCHET A LONG: One 12" square designed and posted each month by members of the yahoo group, "Crochet in Common"


I have a blog at the following link: Dragonflymomof2 Designs.  Back in 2011 I did a year long crochet a long (cal) where I designed a square each month.  It was a challenge and a lot of fun at the same time.  In our yahoo group, Crochet in Common, we have a challenge we have done in the past called, "Designs on a Hook" How it worked is we would have our members sign up, and each one of us would design a square, taking turns with the rnds/rows.  You can see our past designs here.  It's been a lot of fun.  I have been trying to find some new ideas for the New Year, and this was a great one.  I think so anyway!!  Each square will be designed the month before, so it's ready to post on the blog and at Ravelry on or around the 1st or first week of each month.

Each square will be a generic design, in that it will not necessarily be month/holiday related in design.  I hope you all enjoy this upcoming crochet a long.  Please share this links below.

Materials:

~Worsted Weight yarn, but you are welcome to use whatever type you wish, but keep in mind it may alter the size of your square.

~H hook, (most commonly used for 12" squares)  Again use what you are comfortable with.

~Needle for weaving in your ends.

~Love!  We always have lots of love that goes into our work.
