Ceph-Along CAL roundup

This month we took a trip under the sea with the Ceph-Along, featuring my new Baby Cephalopod patterns and their friends made from any of my other aquatic patterns.

Halloween CAL roundup

Just a mini-CAL roundup this month, as the main Accessory-Along is in full swing for the rest of the year, so a few people decided to whip up some Halloweeny amigurumi in the meantime as a bonus October CAL. For November, we’ll be continuing the Accessory-Along, and also having an amazing Dino-Mania CAL! I hope […]

BotaniCAL roundup
