After I finished Dave the Psyduck, a lot of you were interested in starting your own giant Pokemon and thus the community project for a complete 151 Pokedex of giant Pokemon was born! When? This project doesn’t really have a deadline, we just want to see all gen one Pokemon in giant form eventually. Gotta catch ’em all! How big…
Yarn bombing is a fascinating thing, but I’ve always been a bit intimidated by it. Don’t know what a yarn bomb is? I like to think of it as graffiti with yarn. It’s street art where you cover trees, benches, poles, anything in the public eye with yarn. Not just wrapping yarn around them, but making pieces to decorate these…

Why not combine the two?! I started doing speedruns of my crochet work this year. I made it an incentive for reaching a fundraising goal for…
During my first fundraising campaign for St. Jude PLAY LIVE in 2018, I was shown such generosity for the kids that I ran out of milestone incentives. On a whim, I said I would crochet this extremely retro crochet overalls that I had saved in my library on Ravelry. It’s a pair of “shortalls” released in 1971 by the McCalls…

Did you know there was more than one way to make a single crochet? There is! Can you tell the difference between these two circles of single crochet?
