This ain’t your grandma’s afghan! 😉
Just look at this gorgeous blanket! It may look complicated, but don’t let all those beautiful details fool you—this blanket is SO much fun to make! If you consider yourself an advanced beginner crocheter, you can absolutely give this one a go.
Join us for a six-month Crochet-Along as we make the stunning Marigold Desert Blanket by the Floral Hook together. We’ll break it down into manageable pieces, work alongside one another, and have plenty of help along the way.
💛 Emily will be there to help you every step of the way, and there are also helpful YouTube videos available to guide you through the techniques.
🌼 Kickoff & Crochet-Along Schedule
Our kickoff will be:
📅 Saturday, November 7th
⏰ 1:00–3:00 PM
After the kickoff, we’ll officially meet on the 1st Saturday of each month for six months. But don’t feel like you have to wait for the next meeting! You’re welcome to stop by the shop anytime to work on your blanket, ask questions, or get a little encouragement.
🧶 Yarn Kit
We’ll be using Cascade Yarns Sarasota, a beautiful DK (#3) weight acrylic/cotton blend.
There will be several colorways to choose from, so you can make this blanket uniquely yours. We’ll share more information about the color options soon!
💲 Yarn Kit: $256 + tax & the pattern is $2 on Ravelry
✨ Includes 32 skeins of yarn
And here’s the best part: If you don’t use all 32 skeins, we’ll accept returns of any unopened skeins. So you don’t have to worry about being stuck with yarn you don’t need!
