Hispanic Heritage Month runs from September 15 through October 15 each year, and this year I’ll be interviewing seven crochet designers and one knitting designer. Each interview will include a roundup of my favorite patterns from each designer’s collection.
This year’s interview schedule is listed below. This post will be updated with links throughout the month, or you can find the latest post in the series at http://undergroundcrafter.com/tag/hispanic-heritage-month-2015/.

Most of the interviews were conducted in English some were translated from Spanish. In some cases, I will make minor edits to grammar and style to make the interviews flow better in American English.
I’m looking forward to this year’s series! If you have a favorite Spanish, Latina-American, or Latina/o crochet or knitting designer, maker, or yarnie you’d like to see interviewed in next year’s series, let me know in the comments.
Yay – I wondered if you’d be doing it again this year. Awesome. I’ll be following along.
