How the You’ve Got Options Crochet Along Works

Every Monday from January 6 through March 23, 202, we’ll share a free crochet pattern for a square available in both 6″ (15 cm) and 12″ (30 cm) sizes. These squares can be used to make pillows, blankets, garments, and more. You can make granny square projects to keep, for gifts, to sell, or to donate to charity while chatting with other crocheters in our groups and entering to win giveaway prizes!

We will have some amazing prizes for our end-of-CAL giveaway. More details will be added to this post later in January. Don’t forget to enter the giveaway at the end of this post by 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, March 29, 2020!
