In this Yarn Yakking January #1, I’m kicking off the month with my cozy chat agenda—RAOCK, charity, happy mail, and yes… loaf cats. This is one of those sit-and-stitch kind of videos where we can just yarn yak together, talk about what’s going on in the community, and keep each other motivated to keep making all the good things. I also share updates and reminders so if you’re trying to plan your crafting month, you’ll know what I’m focusing on right along with you. I go over the RAOCK theme ideas for 2026 month-by-month (snowflake, heart, shamrock, paw print, flower, rainbow, star, sun, leaf, ribbon, candy corn or ghost, and tree or angel). If you’re new to RAOCK or you just want a simple way to plan little random acts of crochet kindness ahead of time, this list is super handy. I also point you toward the Generous Crafters blog for more charity-minded inspiration, plus I leave all my links (Facebook, Instagram, Etsy, and my mailing info) so we can stay connected and keep the crochet community vibes going.
