New Year, New Plan to Rock 2023

I think many of you will enjoy seeing a snappy year at a glance as well so you will know what to look forward to and plan. Please BOOKMARK THIS PAGE so you can check back often.

Announcement: My main goals this year include being organized and meeting deadlines. After a bad case of the stomach flu this past weekend, I realized in order to meet my commitments (especially to those who pay for my events) I need to simplify things a little more. By doing this I will be able to stick to schedules and meet deadlines. I have combined “Make Ahead Mondays “ and “Throwback Thursdays”. Starting January 23, there will be a new or improved freebie every Monday.

Year Long Events

  • This list does not include new release crochet patterns that will be released throughout the year and are not part of any event.
  • Some things will not have all of the info until we get closer. Dates and links will be updated as available.
  • There will NOT be any seasonal gift or holiday events other than what is listed below. Instead, a pattern will posted each Monday that I think would be great for gifts.
  • Swap Events – I LOVE THESE!!! Unfortunately, they are a lot of work so I have to limit how many I can do. There will be ONE dishcloth swap (“spring cleaning swap” starting January 9th) and ONE ornament swap (in July).
  • Snappy Newsletters – Each TUESDAY at 5pm mt (7pm et) a newsletter will be sent. I tried to stick to this plan in 2022 and some weeks I just didn’t have anything extra special to say. This year, so you know you are receiving the newsletters, these will be sent on that schedule… some weeks the newsletter might just be better than others.

“Seasonally Snappy 2023” – this is my popular, annual, year long PAID event. You can sign up and get more info at THIS LINK.

“Make Ahead Mondays” – Each Monday throughout 2023, get a quick and easy project to make for FREE. Whip it up that week, then stash it away for future gifts and craft fairs. These patterns will include some new and some “oldies but goodies” that have been updated.

Monthly Crochet Alongs – STARTING IN FEBRUARY – these will vary from some big projects, contests, quickies, to whatever floats my boat that month.

    don’t make goals but before I start New projects I think is it something I should do. reading and crocheting are my passions

    • Kelly O’Brien says

      at

      I also love to read and crochet so I now listen to audio books while I crochet. I find that I keep a more even pace and get more accomplished.

    Do less work have more family time

  4. Theresa Lanigan says

    My 2023 goal carries over from what I started in 2022. Finish deleting all duplicate patterns, keeping the highest quality, and labeling them to the exact name of the pattern.

  5. Edi says

    My daughter-in-law in Canada is learning to crochet. I plan to be a resource for her for as long as she needs it.

    My goal is to make enough ornaments to have a totally handmade tree next (this year) and to learn how to knit. Happy New Year fellow Snappiers. 🙂

  8. JOELLEN ADAMS says

    I’d like to finish what I start before starting another project.

  9. Ann G says

    at

    I’ve learned not to set crafting goals. My multiple chronic illnesses love to interrupt my plans, and I hate not meeting my goals. Instead, I just make whatever strikes me at the moment.

  10. Tammy Chevalier says

    at

    I have set several crochet goals for myself, for the upcoming year. The first, (which I have tried to do for the past 3 years, but keep getting side-tracked), to make a flag a month from your flag series. Second, to finish or frog a number of WIP’s, most going back almost 3-4 years. (Yes, I squirrel easily when new patterns come out). Third, to finish a number of designs that I have been working on and to get them posted. Lastly, to get more organized, so I do not have in excess of 10 WIP’s and working designs, waiting to be finished. Guess I will need to get a planner or journal and start filling it up.

  11. Barbara Bowmam says

  15. Connie Dews says

    My daily goal is just to be the best person I can be, by being kind to others and trying to help them wherever I can. Crochet wise, I’m hoping to finish a huge blanket project but I’m still trying to gather all the yarn. I want it to be super nice and soft so just any yarn will not suffice.

Carved pumpkins are one of my most favorite things Carved pumpkins are one of my most favorite things! 
Do you carve or paint pumpkins? Please comment and let me know.

I love a lit pumpkin on the porch for trick or treaters 🎃 

My grand daughter and sil are both allergic to pumpkins so they paint theirs. A giant storm destroyed theirs so I carved them one to have out tonight (my daughter is going to light it). 
I made mine into a witch 🧙‍♀️ 

The hat is a free pattern and made from @redheartyarns super saver.
