I'd like to let you all know about a new CAL (crochet a long) that is starting.. NOW!
The Friendship Blanket CAL is the brainchild of Helen from Sunflower Cottage Crochet. 30 designers have teamed up to bring you 40 squares! Each square will be 9 inches, uses worsted weight yarn, and can be assembled to make a blanket. Pick and Mix which squares you want to make! The running theme is texture - and friendship!
What yarn to use?
The patterns are written for Worsted/Aran Weight yarn- some suggestions are:
Paintbox Simply Aran 100% Acrlyic, 100g/3.5 oz - 60 colours to choose from!
Yarn and Colours Epic - 100% cotton, 50g -101 shades of pure cotton!
How to join in?
I'll be updating this post every few days to update the new square releases, you can also follow Sunflower Cottage- the host of the CAL
If you'd like to read Helen's original post, that kick's off the CAL - click here.
All squares will remain free for the duration of the CAL.
You can use the tag #Friendshipblanket2021 to see what others ar posting on social media.
Of course I jumped at the opportunity to join in, but you'll have to wait to see my square!

Happy 2021,
and Happy Crocheting
