It's a new year of crochet stitch-alongs with exciting new skill-building opportunities. What's coming ahead? Almost the entire year is unknown, but as plans materialize, this article will be updated with more details.
Remember, the point of stitch-along is not a race but a stitching journey together as a community. Don't get hung up on speed, as speed isn't everything. It's how you feel when you crochet.
JOANN Spring Stitch Along
Our 9th annual spring stitch along with JOANN. It's the Aqua Blossoms Hexi Blanket using the limited-time Caron Jumbo Twirl.
Yarnspirations Summer Stitch Along
As always, there will be a summer stitch-along with our friends at Yarnspirations. I haven't designed it yet, and I'm unsure how to approach it. After the past several stitch-alongs, maybe it's time for a round or even a rectangle stitch-along.
I'm open to ideas for possible several-part tutorials for a stitch-along for 2024. Leave me a comment below in this blog if you have any ideas.

Hi would love a study of flowers, maybe puff or clusters in the corners instead of 2dc ch2 2dc
Would make a good round or rectangular project.

For the summer SAL, I vote for a rectangle afghan with a slit in the middle of a long side. I find that I wrap my Afghans around me, like a shawl, but they bunch up around the neck area and don't cover the booty area. I grab a blanket or Afghan from the couch to let the dogs out and have to walk around backyard with them until they are ready to come back in; would be nice for a little more coverage in the cooler weather. Although, I am sure whatever you design will be wonderful and I look forward to the summer school SALs every year. Thank you

I would love to see a rectangular stitch along. I do love all your patterns and appreciate all you do for us.
