I Joined the 6-Day Superstar Blanket Crochet Along!

With Lori Holt’s new crochet book coming out soon, I have found myself reaching for my crochet hooks and yarn a lot recently! The 6-Day Superstar Blanket Crochet Along hosted by Betty McKnit has been the talk of the town for a few years now, and this year she has partnered with Juniper Moon Farm for the coziest color gradients yet. Keep reading to see what I made and to learn about how you can join in on the stitchy fun!

6-Day Superstar Blanket Supplies

This year’s 6-Day Superstar Blanket Crochet Along featured the Juniper Moon Farm Cirrus Rainbow yarn collection, and there are so many great gradients to pick from! For mine, I chose the Alaskan June Afternoon Cirrus Rainbow Cotton Yarn. The pretty corals melt into bright peony pinks and soft greens, creating the look of a blooming flower. Here is what you will need to participate:

While the live event has already wrapped up, Betty set up some great resources for crocheters to reference whenever they choose to start their 6-Day Superstar Blanket. Visit her blog post to learn all about the project, the resources, and the community surrounding the crochet along.
