#CelebrateMomCAL - 2017 Mother's Day At The Beach CAL Introduction

Welcome to the 2017 #CelebrateMomCAL

Mother’s day is around the corner and I am so excited to be joining five of my amazing crochet designer friends and Premier Yarns to bring you this fun Mother’s Day CAL!

Those of you who participated in the #12WeeksChristmasCAL already know how much fun these group CALs can be, but who wants to wait until Christmas to have fun? We don’t, so we came together for a fun Mother’s Day inspired event. Along the way we hope you’ll be introduced to some new yarn, learn some new crochet techniques, and make new friends!

How does it work?

Each Friday, from March 31st through May 5th, we will post a new beach-themed free pattern that we think any mom would love. If you follow along, you will have a lovely Mother’s Day gift for the amazing mom or mother figure in your life! The projects vary in size, type and complexity so there should be something for everyone. Here’s a hint, the projects can stand alone or work together as one larger gift!

But wait, there’s more!

What’s more fun than a CAL with great new free patterns? Why a giveaway of course! Premier Yarns is generously sponsoring a fabulous prize pack at the end of the CAL too (see below for how to enter)!

But wait, there’s STILL more!
