63 Squares Crochet Along

[Donna]

Welcome to the 63 Squares Crochet-Along!

We are crocheting the afghan from the booklet 63 Easy-To-Crochet Pattern Stitches Combine to Make an Heirloom Afghan (Leisure Arts #555). It is widely available in Walmart, craft stores, online stores, and on eBay.

To join, you must fill out the Join Form. If any of your information ever changes, please fill out the Update Form. This is an ongoing crochet-along; I intend to keep it open as long as there is interest.

When you finish your afghan, please send me a photo for the gallery if you are able.

Hi, everybody!

When I posted in my blog about doing the 63 Easy-To-Crochet Pattern Stitches Combine to Make an Heirloom Afghan, some of you guys said you might want to do it, too. So. . . I am now hoping to get a crochet along going. I've made an info page for it at yarntomato.com/63squares.

I will tempt you with a pretty button:

I lose things all the time! Drives me nuts! >:

You are EVIL!!!!! tempting me with buttons!

Bwa ha ha! Resistance is futile! Seriously, though, you don't have to start right now. I am a super-slow crocheter, so I expect to be working on this a while. I spend a lot of time frogging ('cause I'm a Virgo).

Sign me up! --Vera

Great!

Vera mentioned to me that this would be a good stash-buster project. Great idea, Vera!

My task for the day - find the book!! <img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eyes.gif" />

If you can't find the book - buy the book!! <img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/tongue.gif" />

Wish me luck!

I bought the book. Less than $4 at Wal-mart. They have a couple listed on eBay for about the same prices, but they may go up. My sweetie saw the cover and said, "Oh, that looks familiar!" I know, I know, it's around here somewhere. <img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eyes.gif" />
