Every Sunday morning on the [Moogly Facebook page]( I highlight a charity that accepts crochet and knit donations! If you have a charity you'd like me to highlight, you can add it to this thread: click here! It seems most charities like to receive blankets - and that makes a lot of sense! I'm not sure there's anything more comforting, and they're practical too of course. Here are 5 free crochet blanket patterns perfect for charity giving! 1.[Solid fabric for babies and animals]( 2, [Tons of lovely texture]( 3. [Simple and unisex, but not boring]( 4. [Great as a scrapghan]( 5. [When the call is for solid 12" squares]( I hope that these patterns inspire you! Blankets are also a great "going off to college" gift for this time of year - send a little extra comfort with them this fall! ♥ Have a wonderful weekend all, and happy crafting!

When you do your swatch for a sweater you want to make sure that you make the swatch then wash and block the swatch. Doing so will ensure that you get a proper fit on your sweater. Learn to block with this video: [( Make your first sweater. Enjoy a 50% off discount coupon for any & all of my patterns in my Ravelry store.
