• 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: Crochet Your Valentine

Posted on February 3, 2008 by Tracie

Ah, the season of love is upon us. Or is it? While some of us look forward to receiving flowers and candy, some others of us totally loathe the day. Whether you’re a fan of Valentine’s Day or you oppose it with a passion, this challenge is still about crocheting as much as it is about the day.

Crochet your valentine, or at least part of it. It can be anything from lace added to a card or hearts given out to friends. It could even be an amigurumi anti-Valentine’s day creature. Maybe you like to crochet food and chocolate made with yarn is the way to go. Or a crocheted flower bouquet. The ideas are endless. You don’t have to write your own pattern unless you want to. Just use your skills and create a crocheted Valentine for someone you love, even if it is yourself!

  • What’s the Difference?

    A Prompt is mainly a Crochet topic to write about.

    A Challenge is more involved, oftentimes combining crocheting with writing something to go with it. Or it may be a short crochet project.

    A Mission is all about creating your own pattern and usually has a longer time span to complete than the first two. Missions will be posted on the first of the month, and sometimes, one or two may just be thrown in randomly depending on what's going on in the world. Every now & then, it may also involve writing, but it's really intended more for the crochet.
