WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE GARNKNUTEN CALS
Love doing the CAL's it's fun to work with others and the assembly parties are always fun. I enjoy them. Thank you so much! - Sila
I have been enjoying the mystery crochet along. I also love the yarn recommendations. The community is very inspiring and loads of fun. - Melanie
I joined to take part in the December CAL. So fun, with a great surprise twist of a scarf made of sausages for the doggy! So funny! I love Garnknuten's quirky designs. Always a little bit unexpected! - Deb
KEEP THIS IN MIND
- Make sure you crochet pretty tight all the way, so you don’t get large holes between the stitches. If you crochet loosely, I suggest you test a smaller hook size (ex. 2.50 mm) so that the stuffing doesn't show once you've filled the toy.
- All parts will be worked in spirals (if the pattern doesn’t say otherwise) - so you don‘t have to think about closing the rounds.
- A stitch marker can help you keep track of the beginning of your rows.
