2024 VVCAL Main Info Page

Quick Links to Each Week of the VVCAL: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16/17/18/19/20 PDF Version The PDF version will be released on Etsy, Ravelry, and my online shop when we are about half-way through the VVCAL. Introduction Hello, gorgeous crafter! Today I am shouting out the announcement for my 2024 VVCAL! You may have heard of my 2016 VVCAL, my 2018 VVCAL, 2020 VVCAL, which are made with squares. They tie up nicely in a neat bow in my VVCAL Mega Pack which you can find on Etsy or Ravelry. For the 2022 VVCAL, I wanted to do something different, so I decided to change the game with hexagon motifs. This 2024 VVCAL will be hexagons as well, and they will mix and match with the 2022 motifs. This is going to be a very exciting make, as I know many of you are very interested in making a hexagon blanket, but are looking for new ways to create the layout or start joining them. Please read through this entire post, as there is a ton of information here. …
