Spring MCAL 2020


Find the Spring MCAL here on Ravelry.

Welcome to the Spring MCAL! I hope this greeting finds you and your family safe and healthy. As many of us stay inside due to the coronavirus, I think this would be the perfect timing for us to do a mystery crochet along together!

The clues will be in PDF form, ready to download, starting March 24th, 2020. I am in California, please remember that I am on Pacific time. 

Your finished Spring animal will measure about 11-12 inches, depending on the kind of yarn you use, the size crochet hook, and your tension while crocheting.

Make sure you join my Ravelry group to enjoy this MCAL with each other! There will be many fun threads to post pics and chat with one another.
