In this Yarn Yakking January #5, I’m just hanging out with y’all and going down my cozy little agenda—RAOCK, charity, chickens, and yes… my sweatshirt. This is one of those chatty catch-up videos where we talk about what’s going on in my crochet world and what’s coming up in our community, because you know I love when we can craft together and keep it fun while we’re also doing good. I also share the 2026 plans for RAOCK (Random Acts of Crochet Kindness) with a month-by-month theme list—snowflakes, hearts, shamrocks, paw prints, and more—so you can start thinking ahead if you like to plan your makes. And I go over the Generous Crafters 2026 schedule too, with ideas like washcloths, prayer squares, bookmarks, baby hats, totes, shawls, soap sacks, mittens, loveys, hats and scarves, and blankets. If you’ve been wanting to crochet for charity but didn’t know where to start, this kind of list makes it so much easier to pick a project and jump in.
