I had never taken part in a crochet-a-long until this month, when I saw NeedleNoodles post that she would be running two: a standard CAL with some of her spring patterns (and an accompanying discount), and a mystery CAL in the Ravelry group Hooked for Life! While one of her spring patterns was very appealing (a hen and chicks, including an egg with feet), I couldn’t resist the lure of the MCAL.
I wasn’t able to start stitching until this past weekend, though the daily clues were posted from the 1st to the 16th. Here’s what we had.
Clues 1-3: two microphones.
Clues 4-6: two clubs.
Clues 7-10: a strawberry in a tutu.
Clues 11-13: A head!
Clues 14-16: Two deflated balloons.
If this sort of thing sounds like fun to you, follow the ReveDreams Facebook page. Any future mystery crochet-a-longs that cross my desk will be posted there.
What a clever idea! At what point did you figure out what you were making?
Pretty late. Even after finishing the first ear (clue 15 out of 16) I wasn’t really sure, and it wasn’t until another participant suggested bunny that I thought “oh, yeah, that’s it!”
