Announcing the 2017 Holiday Stashdown Crochet Along!

2017 Holiday Stashdown Crochet Along with CAL Central Crochet - Join 15 crochet designers and thousands of crocheters as we count down to the winter holiday season while crocheting gifts and decorations. Share finished project pictures on Underground Crafter for your chance to win awesome prizes including yarn, hooks, patterns, and more from 22 different companies.It’s that time of year again! Welcome to the third annual Holiday Stashdown Crochet Along! I’ve teamed up with 15 other crochet designers to share 16 free crochet patterns for winter holiday gift and decoration projects with you. (You can still find most patterns from the 2015 Holiday Stashdown CAL here and the 2016 Holiday Stashdown CAL here if you need more holiday inspiration.)

Each pattern will be a one-skein project, or a stashbuster/scrappy project, so you can work from your existing yarn stash to make a great holiday gift. On the other hand, if you’d like to go ahead and buy some yarn just for this project, that’s ok, too. We love yarn just as much as you do! (We even have a coupon code good for 10% off your purchase at Premier Yarns, one of our giveaway prize sponsors, so read on for details!)
