Welcome to Crochet Every Day! My name is Megan and I have a newly rejuvenated love for crocheting (also a desire to knit better than knit one...).
My goal is to post a new pattern every day of 2010 and to have EVERYTHING finished by 2014. That gives me 5 years to do 365 patterns. It seems like a long time, but my plan is to have some complex patterns, as well as simple ones. I can do a bunch of amigurumi (that's the Japanese art of tiny crocheted stuffed toys / decorations) in one day, but a blanket will take me a few weeks. This blog is more about completion. I want to complete the finding of 365 patterns and in 5 years complete all of the projects. I also want to challenge myself to try a variety of patterns - right now I have only crocheted scarves, beanies, and blankets (oh last week, when I started researching for this, I found a baby bootie pattern and made those). These projects will not all be for myself, I will be giving many things away. I also hope to highlight various charities along the way, and give things to them.
Once I have posted everything, I will make a master list of all the projects, each one will say when it was updated, started, completed, etc. The links will take you back to the original post.

I have a few sites that I use most regularly for patterns. I found a bunch at Lion Brand and Red Heart. And then this is a complete list of like a zillion crochet patterns (seriously I printed it out and it was like 57 pages - and it keeps growing with new patterns!).
Check me out on Ravelry! (I have found many patterns here as well and they have a cool set up where you can show your progress on current projects.)
Thanks for joining me on this journey!
