Hey y’all—this is Yarn Yakking January #2, and I’m just settling in for some cozy crochet chat with my usual agenda. I’m talking RAOCK and charity makes, plus what I’ve been working on and what’s on my hook right now. If you like project updates, planning, and that “sit and stitch with a friend” vibe, this one is for you. I also share my RAOCK plan for 2026, because I like having a simple monthly theme to keep me moving and keep the happy mail fun: January snowflake, February heart, March shamrock, April paw print, May flower, June rainbow, July star, August sun, September leaf, October ribbon, November candy corn or ghost, and December tree or angel. On the project side, I’m yakking about snowflakes, a Stormy Waters hat, a cell phone bag, and market bags—plus I’ve got links in the description for patterns and makers I mention. And if you want to join in with more giving-focused crafting, I point you over to the Generous Crafters blog too.
