It’s time to kick off Day 15 of the “Make it for Me” projects!  You’ve survived the holidays and now It’s Time for You!  For the entire month of January, I will bring you FREE patterns from amazing designers in the crochet industry.  One of the great parts of “Make it for Me” is the designer will tell you exactly what that project means to him/her and why it is considered perfect for you too! Take a few minutes to check it out and decide if this crochet pattern is the one that you’ll dedicate to make for yourself.  If this is your first time here, you can find out the details about how “Make it for Me” works HERE.  Be sure to scroll all the way down because I have an announcement of a local “Make it for Me” event in my home town!

 I always fall in love with everything that Maria from Pattern Paradise designs.  The intricate pattern design on this shawl is stunning.  She did an X-stitch event last year where every month she created something using the X-Stitch.  She felt this summer wrap was the perfect “Make it for Me” project.  She said, “The Summer Wrap is one of my favorite pieces because it is feminine without being frilly, versatile and practical as it looks great for dress up as well as casual wear but best of all, it works up quickly and looks great in different yarns! But beware, every time I get one done, one of my friends, son’s girlfriends or relatives fall in love and claim it!”

Also, I want to announce that I will be having a local “Make it for Me” Crochet Day hosted by Yarnhouse Studio!  If you leave near or around Opelika, Alabama, I would love for you to join us on January 23, 2015!  I’ll be there at 10 am!  Is there an end time?  Well I just don’t know yet….We may close the place down if we are having so much fun!  If you are interested in coming, please let me know.  I would love a “head count”.  You can find the address and other information on the Yarnhouse Studio website! Click HERE to join the official invite! I would encourage all of you to form your own “Make it for Me” event at your local yarn store, coffee shop, etc.  Let’s just take at least one day out of the month to celebrate US!

Have a great day!
