Ready for fall? So are we! Join the new Suncrisp Appleghan crochet-along!

We’re super excited to work with Tamara Kelly of Moogly to create the CAL for you! You can check out more of Tamara’s designs on her website and be sure to check out the other patterns she’s designed for I Like Crochet as well!

Inspired by bright colored apples, sunny autumn days and crisp fall air, this Appleghan captures the essence of Autumn without being drab. Made up of different squares, each week you’ll learn how to do a different motif for this amazing afghan. All the information needed to get started with the Crochet Along can be found here!

PLUS in exciting news you can win a 1 year subscription to I Like Crochet Magazine! That’s 6 new issues full of exclusive designs, access to hundreds of patterns in our archives. Details for how to enter this giveaway by participating in this CAL are down below.

The original Suncrisp Appleghan is crocheted in Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice yarn.
