As there were 2 simultaneous Crochet-Alongs running for the first half of this month, and the Valentine’s CAL was so popular, I wasn’t sure we’d get many entries in the Plant-Along. I’m happy to have been proved wrong! Here’s the spectacular roundup for February’s Plant-Along CAL<\/a> – and keep reading to the end to find the March theme…<\/p>\n

Looking at all these beautiful plants just makes me smile – I hope it’s done the same for you! (If you’d like to make any of the patterns featured in this CAL, you’ll find them all under Flowers & Plants<\/a> in my shop.)<\/p>\n

Are you tempted to join in the March CAL? The theme is spring\/Easter<\/strong>, and we have a lovely selection of patterns for you to choose from (including the new Baby Bunnies<\/a> – which is still on special for the rest of today if you haven’t picked up a copy yet):<\/p>\n

\"Easter<\/p>\n

Because of the Easter theme, this CAL will run March 1st – April 8th (Easter Sunday). If you’d like to join in, you can find all the patterns in the Holiday & Seasonal<\/a> section of my shop, and you’ll find the Easter CAL thread in the PlanetJune Ravelry group<\/a> – I hope you’ll join us there! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
