That’s right! Hookabee’s first ever crochet-along (CAL) is starting next week! From October 2nd until the 31st, come join me in crocheting lots of ghosts and owls for a BOO + HOO Halloween CAL.

I will be releasing two new patterns for the occasion, and one is free! Meet Grimm the Ghost:

You can also make little owls during the CAL with my new Little Koko the Owl pattern:

And of course, you can also make my original big Koko the Owl for the CAL as well.

Stick with traditional owl colours, or have fun creating Halloween themed owls by changing up the colours.

The CAL will take place in the hookabee ravelry group. Join the group then join the fun by going to the BOO + HOO Halloween CAL thread. Each ghost or owl ami you make and share will count as an entry into a draw to win prizes, including a physical prize that will get mailed out to you! But you will have to wait to find out what it will be 😛

For the first two weeks of the CAL (Oct 2-16) both the original and little Koko patterns will be on sale for 20% off, so this is the perfect time to grab one.
