Hey crochet friends! 🌟 Ever think about how awesome it is that our crochet skills can bring some warmth and coziness to people who really need it?
That’s the whole idea behind the ‘From Us to You’ free crochet pattern Donation Challenge!
So, as crocheters, we’re not just good at making things; we’re spreading joy and comfort. And with all the crazy stuff happening in the world right now, it’s the perfect time to use our crochet powers for something good. No matter what, one thing always stands strong – the incredible feeling of giving.
Tntroducing the ‘From Us to You’ Donation Challenge! It’s an open invite for crocheters of all levels to come together, grab those hooks, and create beautiful handmade items for folks in need in your local community.
Now, here’s a little story about how this awesome idea came about. Meet Helen from Sunflower Cottage Crochet – we connected during online crochet events, and since our time zones matched up, it just made sense for us to team up. We were chatting, and Helen threw out this amazing idea for a free crochet pattern donation challenge. And you know me by now, I was totally on board!
