Halloween CAL roundup

PlanetJune Halloween CrochetAlong

The Halloween CAL was the first crochet-along organised entirely by PlanetJune ravelry group members, and wow, what a success: page after page of projects, creative photography, fun modifications to the patterns… I can see why people enjoy CALs so much.

Don’t be shy – please join the group and participate in future CALs! November’s CAL topic will be Accessories – that’s everything in the PlanetJune Accessories range, and you can also use any of my other patterns to create accessories (e.g. a flower pin or bag embellishment, a fruit necklace). Look for the new CAL thread from tomorrow…

And now see the results of the Halloween CAL! (As usual, I’m crediting the participants by their Ravelry usernames, so you can look them up on Ravelry if you want more details.) You’re going to love these pics!

    So many cute pictures! It was fun to have a little project to do for myself amidst all the gifts and super fun to see everybody’s projects together.

    These are wonderful! Keep at it, June. I find so much relief from the harshness of world affairs and the U.S. in particular (where I live) when I go to your wonderful page. :o)
