My Mini Amigurumi Crochet Alongs are some of my favorite projects that I do throughout the year, but this year I have struggled to get them planned the way I had hoped. I did my last crochet along in the spring and had plans to do another in the summer and fall but the spring crochet along hit at an incredibly busy time for me with family stuff and by the time I finished I was feeling very stressed out and burnt out. I kind of just stopped posting all together. We had a lot going on with our kids and life was feeling so busy and overwhelming and I just kind of stepped away from my blog a little bit. I had ideas I was really excited about for a summer and fall crochet along, but I found that although taking a break was easy and kind of happened unintentionally without a lot of thought, starting back up and getting back on track is a lot of work and has to be a lot more intentional. I couldn't quite get things together enough to get those crochet alongs going like I planned, and I was kind of sad about it because I had some fun ideas and I really do love them. I eventually consigned myself to the fact that I just had to wait until Christmas, but then as I was working on some fall/halloween ideas so share this month I decided to throw together a little crochet along after all. It is just going to be a little bit smaller and a little bit different than past crochet alongs this time around.
