Crochet Project Goal

January 13, 2022


Hello blog friends.  If any of you have been following me for a while, then you know I love crocheting during the winter months.  It's the new year and I've set a crochet goal for myself.

Can you believe I've never made a sweater!  I want to crochet a sweater for myself.  I've searched Ravelry and Pinterest and I've found a free beginner crochet pattern that I like. 


I've found a free pattern on Pinterest at Hooked on Homemade Happiness.  I liked the way this oversized sweater looked.


I went online to look for the yarn at Michaels and Joann stores.  I decided to take a drive and buy the yarn in the store.  There was a special for the yarn at Michaels, buy one get one 1/2 off.  I was so surprised to see the bins of yarn I needed almost empty.  I needed at least 6 skeins of yarn.  I picked out 6 skeins of tan yarn.  I figured it would be easier for me to use the same color yarn for this project. 


I started working on the sweater yesterday afternoon.  It means that I'm on my way to a new goal and project for the new year.



When I am finished, I will post about this sweater project.

What project are you working on?

  3. What a great project Julie, I can't wait to see how it turns out, I bet it will be so cosy and warm. I am crocheting a wheelchair seat cushion cover for my brother and I really need to get this done before I can start on anything else.

  10. I’ll be interested to see how you like this pattern. I’ve never made a sweater either even though I’ve been crocheting since I was about 8 years old. I think your color choice is great. You’ll be able to wear this neutral color with so many things! Zenda
