NatCroMo13 with Underground Crafter!
Although I dabble in most of the needlecrafts and even teach knitting, I’m truly a crocheter at heart. For the first time on my blog, I’ve actually been organized enough to plan a month’s worth of activities for National Crochet Month (also known as NatCroMo). I’ll be posting about crochet awesomeness every day this month. I even made a schedule! (That exclamation point is equal parts excitement about NatCroMo and about being organized.)
Sundays: Hook reviews with giveaways
Each week, I’ll share a review for a different crochet hook. I’ll also be hosting hook giveaways sponsored by The Crochet Dude by Boye, Denise Interchangeable Knitting and Crochet, Lantern Moon, Laurel Hill, and Susan Bates.
Mondays: Interviews with fantabulous crocheters
This month, I’ll post four awesome interviews with crochet designers, teachers, and bloggers. (I’ll also share some mini interviews on other days of the week.)
Tuesdays: Book reviews with giveaways
I’ll be reviewing four recent crochet book releases and hosting your chance to win a copy, courtesy of Interweave, Leisure Arts, North Light Books, and Trafalgar Square Books.
Wednesdays: “Free Day”
I was a bit nervous about scheduling a themed post every day, so I’ve left Wednesdays open for whatever crochet-related post strikes my fancy!
On Wednesday, March 27, I’ll be participating in Crochetville’s A Tour Through Crochet Country. This mega blog tour will include stops on over 40 crochet designers blogs/Facebook pages, along with a chance to support a wonderful charity, Project Night Night. My March 27 post will also mark the second anniversary of my blog. (Hint, hint: Perhaps there will be a giveaway…)
Thursdays: Vintage Needlecrafts Pick of the Week
This month, all four of my Vintage Needlecrafts Pick of the Week posts will focus on a cherished crochet classic.
Fridays: Pineapples for Everyone Shawl Crochet-A-Long (free pattern)
I’ll be continuing my CAL throughout this month, and I can’t wait to see your shawls!
Saturday: My favorite online crochet resources
On Saturdays, I’ll be spreading the crochet love by sharing one of my favorite online crochet resources.
Since I’m hosting a lot of giveaways and reviews this month, I just want to remind my readers of my review policy. So, without further ado, Happy National Crochet Month 2013!
This is awesome Marie! Best to you with this undertaking!
Thanks so much, Nicky. I may need a blogging break in April, though.
So excited to see you are part of the tour!
Sadly, I’ll be out of town and will probably have limited time online during your actual date (happy blogaversary in advance!!!) so I may not be reading along that day. Hope you get lots of traffic and new readers!

Thanks so much, Keri! I hope you have safe and happy travels!
