Stitch Together Official Stitch A Thon- Square 9
Use this adorable little seven inch square for a full blanket or stitch along with Stitch Together Official’s Stitch-A-Thon 2022! All the details and free pattern are below.
Can you believe we are already more than halfway through the Stitch A Thon? It’s been flying by. In case you haven’t heard, here are all the details about the 2022 Stitch A Thon.
The Stitch Together Official Crochet Along Group is switching it up this year with a brand new year long crochet along! You can stitch along with us all year and at the end you’ll have a gorgeous blanket to wrap up with this winter.
We are releasing a total of 14 seven inch squares, which you’ll be able to find the free patterns for on our team member’s blogs. A new square comes out every three weeks. Then you’ll work up each square a total of four times and by the end of the year we will have 56 squares to assemble into one fabulous blanket. You can find even more info and a full schedule with links to all the squares over at stitchtogetherofficial.com
Our Facebook Group members have been sharing their color palettes and plans and they are all gorgeous! You can plan out your blanket below using this handy little planner. I’m doing black and white squares and plan to assemble them so they create a geometric pattern with stripes. There are so many possibilities. Make sure to join the Facebook Group today so you can get some inspiration!
If you’d like you can find a PDF version of the Stitch-A-Thon that will be updated with each new square from the WeCrochet website. All team members are using WeCrochet worsted weight yarns for their blankets. They have so many beautiful yarns and colors to choose from. There’s something for everyone!
