Our very first, Crochet Pin-along was a blast! Collecting images on a community Pinterest board is such a cool way to crochet-along a project together. We (myself, Bernat & the Jo-Ann team) loved seeing pictures of fellow crocheter’sMarket Bag supplies, works-in-progress (WIPs), and finished objects (FOs). In case you missed it though, here’s a glimpse of the #joannCPAL fun.
Getting started (or “chaining on” as I like to call it)
You can see more CPAL photos on Pinterest, here. Still want to make a Market Bag? Please do! You can get the pattern here, and Cotton-ish yarn at select Jo-ann Stores and during July, on sale at Bernat.com for 25 % off (enter code: BERNATSELECT13)!
Since the CPAL is something we made up, it was definitely a learning experience. Do you have any suggestions for making our next pin-along even more successful? Please post your comments!
✨To celebrate Christmas in July, get 10% off if you pre-order this month.

It's almost July and that means it's time to debut YarnYAY!’s Fall/Winter Designer in Residence - the amazing, vibrant, and talented, Toni Lipsey aka @tlyarncrafts ! We're big fans of her work in both the crochet and Tunisian crochet realms and couldn't be more thrilled to have her on the design team for the season.
✨This means that, as of our July box (on sale now) YarnYAY! subscribers will receive one of her patterns, designed especially for us! 🧶
Welcome Toni, we’re thrilled to have you as part of the team! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dear community,
The majority share of the knitting, crochet, and crafts industries, and the community that supports them, are women and non-binary folk with uteruses. After yesterday's devastating supreme court decision, essentially removing women's constitutional rights over our own bodies, need to support one another. We need to love each other enough to not give up. I see you. My heart is with you.
Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to be on a Zoom action-meeting run by a major women's healthcare organization. We feel powerless, but one of the suggestions they gave for things we can do is to donate to grass-root organizations that focus on women's healthcare clinics.
