Hello all you happy crocheters!!!
We had a great start to the new year with last nights meeting. We tried our first mystery CAL (crochet-a-long). Two patterns were available, one with an Easy level, and one Intermediate. I have to say that I think everyone responded really well to giving the patterns a try. Here's a few pics from last nights meeting:

We also discussed our plans for the coming year. A great suggestion was that for each meeting we do a project that teaches a new technique or stitch. So for each meeting I will send out a supply list and technique we will work on during the meeting. Of course, the group projects are always optional but it should be a lot of fun.
Also, we are going to be doing another hat drive as our charity event for this year. We will be starting it early than last by holding it over the summer. Most likely we will kick it off at our May meeting but I haven't finalized anything yet.
Thanks for coming out everyone!!!! For those of you who might like the Mystery CAL patterns, email me at smcrocheters@yahoo.com and I will be happy to send you copies! See you all in February!!
