Hey, gorgeous! I'm so thrilled you're here today because I am announcing our 2024 yearlong Mystery Crochet Along (MCAL)! Our previous mystery make alongs have been wildly popular, so we can’t wait to do it with you again! And did I mention that there will be prizes? Oodles of them this year! Here's how it works...
Each month in 2024, we'll release another clue along with yarn color recommendations and a video tutorial. Follow along with us for the entire 12 months, and at the end of 2024, you'll have crocheted your own incredibly stunning Indivisible blanket or shrug.
Today's video gives more information about what you can expect and how the event works, and I also demonstrate how to work the chainless starting double crochet and the foundation double crochet, both of which you'll need to know to work this clue.
Download Clue #1 of Indivisible at www.expressionfiberarts.com/p...
Be sure to sign into your account when downloading the pattern, so when future clues go live, you'll only need to login and re-download the pattern to receive the next clue.
To crochet Indivisible, you will need 12 different colored skeins of our warm and silky soft Crema Worsted yarn or an equivalent amount of yarn/yardage in another worsted-weight yarn. For Clue #1, we used Koala Crema Worsted.
Each month, we’ll let you know which color we used for that clue, but you can also create your own color combination. We DO recommend that you choose colors with a good amount of contrast among them, and crochet Indivisible with at least two different colors. And this is VERY IMPORTANT... You will need to keep the leftover partial skeins from the first clues, as you will need some of
them later in the pattern.

Crema Worsted is a luxurious, worsted-weight blend of 70% Superwash Merino Wool and 30% Mulberry Silk. It’s a luscious, shimmering, 8-ply (4 strands of 2 plies each) yarn that is bouncy and long-lasting! With excellent structure, a soft hand, and a subtle glow, this yarn is lovely for shawls, sweaters, accessories, blankets, baby items, and so much more! It is a dreamy yarn that takes the dye incredibly well, which results in fabulous, hand-dyed shades! 192 yds/175 m per skein.
As long as you match gauge, you will only need ONE skein of Crema Worsted (or an equivalent substitute) each month. We're also curating two additional color combinations that you can use instead of the recommended Crema Worsted colors listed above.
The first set of alternative colors are the Crema Worsted Deep Jewels palette: C1) Mountain Stream Crema Worsted.
The second set of alternative colors are the Pearlescent Worsted Sacred Forest palette: C1) Crystal Pearlescent Worsted.
We are also having a yearlong contest for this pattern with prizes! And they’re going to be bigger and better than ever with both monthly prizes and HUGE grand prizes! Join us on our 2024 MCAL Ravelry thread at www.ravelry.com/discuss/expre... and get more information about the MCAL. You'll also receive pattern support and make friends with other crocheters.
I do hope you'll join us for this year's MCAL and that you have a marvelous day! Sign up for email updates to receive more knit and crochet patterns. We aim for one a week, and most are free for a limited time only. You'll also get coupon codes and be among the first to hear about new limited yarns! XOXO
