Stitchwell Social Club | March Round-Up
Stitchwell Social Club March Round-Up
If my latest venture isn’t yet on your radar, you’re in for a treat! There’s an epic new hangout for my community—loaded with tutorials, patterns, workshops, and more. Welcome to the Stitchwell Social Club! Here, knitters and crocheters of all levels dive into stitching magic, spicing up their skills with a sprinkle of trend-culture fun.
Curious about what’s happening? Let me unveil the charm! Check out this monthly magic we’ve cooked up.
March’s Theme: Rococo A-Go-Go
Each month, we’re inspired by an aesthetic thanks to Pinterest and trend-forecasting wizards, serving as a theme for our stitching adventures. It’s a fun, fresh way to start crafting chats, encouraging us to view our maker’s realm as part of the grand cultural tapestry. Our maiden voyage? The dazzling Rococo A-Go-Go.
Rococo is all about the conclusion of the Baroque era, known for its ultra-feminine flair, pastel hues, and extravagant charm. It’s a visual feast!
Stitchwell LIVE Episodes
Once revealed, our trend breaks down into ante-upping skills for knitters and crocheters. Our Rococo cue? We delved into charming ruffles and pearls! Each month features three episodes of my live video series, Stitchwell LIVE (formerly Ask Me Monday), revealing the handmade how-to. March’s episodes were:
• Episode #1: How to Knit & Crochet Ruffles
• Episode #2: Stitching with Faux Pearls
• Episode #3: Knitting a Curl-Free Bind-off
Practice Projects
With our episodes come companion posts packed with directions for “practice projects” (easy-to-make dazzlers showcasing the skills we’ll conquer). In March, we crafted charming Ruffled Candle Covers and glitzy Pearled Wristbands.
NEW: Rococo Bandit Scarf (knit)
Membership magic also unlocks a burgeoning library of patterns! Among the 55+ existing designs, we’ve spun up freshly fabulous ones. Behold Rococo Bandit—a playful triangle scarf knit in chic Stockinette stitch, with faux pearls and flirty ruffles.
Psst…not interested in a membership, but want to make this scarf? No problem! It’s for sale on Ravelry & Etsy.
Rococo Ruffles Set (crochet)
The next gem from our archives! Originally from 2010’s Pop Goes Crochet, relive the ruffly ascot and cuffs—revamped for our S.Well crocheters.
Handicraft Happy Hours
Stitchwell Social Club buzzes with creativity and connection. Our boards and chats connect us, but stitch gets real at weekly Handicraft Happy Hours.
We totally get schedule chaos. No worries—meet-ups are recorded so you can join the fun, whether live or replayed.
Phew, ok. That was a lot … but also, only the beginning. I would LOVE it if you would join me as part of Stitchwell Social Club. Give it a try, if you love it, stay and stitch for a spell. If it’s not your thing, well, at least you can check off the list that you gave it a try.
I hope to see you soon at Stitchwell Social Club. The new theme is announced tomorrow, April 1st!
Pro-Tip: the 3-Day Free Trial will get you that presentation, the first Stitchwell LIVE episode of the month, and access to the workshop and patterns library.
