• How This Works

      Short Version

        1) Every Sunday a new crochet Prompt or Challenge will be posted. In addition, a Mission will be posted on the first day of each month, and possibly within any given month.
        2) Copy the Prompt/Challenge/Mission to your own blog with your response then come back here and leave your link in the comments of the appropriate topic so everyone will know where to find it.
        3) If you don't have a blog, why not start one? Or you can just post your response here.
        4) You don't have to participate in every post. Do the ones you want. Backtrack if you wish. 5) If you have any comments about this site and/or suggestions for a prompt/challenge, click on the "Share Your Ideas" tab and use the form to send it.

        For the long-winded version, click the About button.

Challenge: Boo!

Halloween is around the corner so to celebrate, crochet something spook-ish, either from a pattern already out there somewhere or just your own creation. (This would be a great time to try free form!) It can be scary-scary, scary-fun, scary-cute, or not even scary at all. It’s totally up to you. Afterwards, if you’re feeling [...]

Prompt: A Crocheter Lives Here!

If someone who never knew you crocheted were to walk into your home, what tell-tell signs would there be to indicate that someone who loves to crochet resided there? Would it be immediately noticeable? Or would it take a little more “digging”? What evidence would they find as proof that “a crocheter lives here!”?
Be sure to link back [...]

Prompt: Why do you do it?

If someone asked, “Why do you do it? Why in the world do you crochet?”, would you give them a long response or a quick and easy one? How would you reply?
Be sure to link back to this thread with a link to your response so others can find you easily!
