Our October Meeting is sure to be a fun one! We will be beginning our intro to Crochet with an awesome Crochet-along taught by Susan!
October 10th, 2-4pm, Larry J. Ringer Library, College Station, TX.
*Must have paid one-time $20 dues to participate*
If you’re brand new to hooking or if you’re an old pro, join in the fun and follow along as we crochet squares - starting with the very, very basics and progressing one square at a time through 63 crochet stitches!
Detailed group instruction will be provided at the October and November meetings, then we’ll adjust the amount of instruction at meetings based on the group’s ongoing needs.
We will be using the Sampler Afghan pattern by Darla Sims, available in booklet form Amazon or as a Ravelry Download (see pattern page for more info). The booklet has been published with a couple of different covers, so if you have one or find one that looks different, don’t panic. If it’s 63 squares by Darla Sims, it’s almost certainly the same book.
We are starting with block #1, and the October meeting will cover how to chain, crochet into a foundation chain, single crochet, and tips for how most of the squares will be finished off.
The November meeting will cover double crochet, treble crochet, and half double crochet as we move on to squares 3, 4, and 2. (I will introduce them out of order for reasons). After that, we’ll shoot for two squares a month, in order.
The pattern is geared toward a three-color afghan, but do it however you like! I’m going to stash dive and make the most colorful blanket I can from the yarns I have. There are no rules! 
So grab some worsted weight yarn, a size H hook, a copy of the pattern, and start an afghan journey with us!
