Spring is here — and I have been working on something special to celebrate it with you.

Welcome to the very first Stitch the Season: Spring Awakening crochet-along! This is a four-week community event where we stitch through a collection of four coordinating spring patterns together — one new pattern releasing every Saturday.

Whether you make one pattern or all four, there is a place for you here.

What Is the Stitch the Season: Spring Awakening CAL?

A crochet-along — or CAL — is a community event where makers stitch through the same pattern or collection at the same time, sharing progress and cheering each other on along the way.

The Stitch the Season: Spring Awakening is my very first Stitch the Season collection — a series I plan to repeat every season with a brand new coordinating set of patterns. Spring Awakening is where it all begins.

Over four weeks, one new pattern releases every Sunday. You can stitch along in real time week by week, or purchase the full bundle and work at your own pace. There are no rules — just good yarn, good community, and beautiful spring makes.

The CAL is free to participate in. Each pattern is available as a paid PDF download from the American Crochet shop. Patterns are available individually or as a discounted bundle.

This sweet Spring Morning Mini Bag comes in two styles — dress it up with pearls and ruffles or keep it cute and simple. Made in cotton yarn for durability and washability, this bag is perfect for little girls heading to spring events, Easter, or weddings. Quick to stitch and absolutely adorable.

Week 3 — May 3: Speckled Nest Eggs Set

My very first amigurumi pattern — and I designed it to be beginner friendly so we can learn this together! The Speckled Nest Eggs Set includes three egg variations in one PDF: a plain egg, a speckled egg with embroidery detail, and a striped egg worked in seed stitch. Beautiful as spring décor, nestled in a wooden bowl with dried moss and eucalyptus.

The perfect finale — and perfectly timed for Mother’s Day!

A beautiful handmade gift that she will actually use.
