This week is Kaleidoscope MAL Week Eight, and I’m checking in with where I’m at, what I’m working on, and what’s coming next as we get closer to the finish line. If you’ve been crocheting along with me, this is your spot to catch up, get re-motivated, and see how I’m handling the week-to-week progress. I also point you back to the Kaleidoscope MAL introduction video so you can jump in (or re-read the “rules” in your head) and follow the whole make-along from the beginning. I also take time to shout out the amazing prize donors who helped make this MAL extra fun: Reggie from JHook Crochet, Theresa, Jane, Micki, Kriss, and Zee (with that gorgeous hook made by Jess Handmade Designs). I’m seriously grateful for everyone who donated—there are prizes like yarn, a tote bag, a gift card, and a handmade hook, and the yarn donations will be split between winners. If you’re following along, keep posting your progress, keep showing up for the weekly check-ins, and don’t forget you can always find my bags and patterns linked if you want to support what I do.
