This week we will be posting but not to Social Media. We are going to learn all about crochet around posts.
Our crochet along is finished, but you can start anytime and work at your own pace.
If you would like the entire series in one convenient PDF, you may purchase the e-book in my Etsy shop!
This is the sixth part of the twelve-month series. See Part One for all the links to all the prior posts.

This adorable baby infinity scarf is easy to make and makes a great baby gift. The infinity scarf makes a great drool bib for teething little ones. And they look so fashionable!
The baby infinity scarf was designed with safety in mind as it closes in the back with a snap or velcro so that the loops cannot tighten around your baby’s neck. It also makes it easy to take on and off!

After 10 months (in November), you will have 30 different blocks in total that we will learn to stitch together in December to make a wonderful lap-sized afghan perfect for Christmas gift giving, although, you may be tempted to keep this for yourself to use for snuggling on the couch.

Woohoo! You have purchased your yarn and hooks and are ready to begin to learn to crochet.
The Learn to Crochet is under way and I am so excited! We have a number of new hookers out there ready to join in.
As I said in Learn to Crochet – Part 1, we are going to start on three blocks month, but when I started to write this month’s blog, there were so many “general” instructions the blog was way too long. So, we have two blogs today. Part 2A – which will be the general instructions and Part 2B where we will begin to Learn to Crochet!
