WISHGHAN CAL – Week #12 Whimsy + the Boys

WISHGHAN CAL WEEK #12: Whimsy + the Boys

I can’t believe we’re already at the last square before the final border!! My how this crochet along has flown by. This center square is the size of four small squares together or 40×40 pixels. Whimsy’s adventures wouldn’t be the same without her friends, Flit and Rolland. They make quite the team.

If you haven’t had a chance to read my children’s chapter book, WISHWEAVER, you can find it at most online retailers including Amazon, Barnes and Noble, IndieBound, Target, and Walmart! Written for ages 7-9, WISHWEAVER would make the perfect gift for the special kiddo in your life. Especially ones who love adventure, bugs, and magic!

Book Two in the Tales of Whimsy series, The Wayward Wind, will hit the online retailers on August 28th! Whimsy’s story is far from finished, and I can’t wait to share more of it with you.

She felt Flit brush his wispy arms against her closed eyelids. Rolland grasped onto her leg that held him even tighter.

Her friends were with her. She was safe.

She wasn’t alone.

Whimsy took a deep breath and opened her eyes.

Excerpt from the children’s chapter book, WISHWEAVER, by J.H. Winter

While this Wishghan CAL posts will always be here for free on my blog, for convenience, I’ve also created one giant 70-page PDF file for those who would like to purchase a copy of all the files together in one place along with a photo tutorial of connecting the squares and doing the final border. No searching through posts necessary! Plus, it’s over there now, should you want to work ahead of the group rather than wait for each week’s new square. You can purchase this pattern for a small fee here in the store.

It can also be purchased over on Ravelry, Etsy, and LoveCrafts.

Make sure to post your finished squares/rectangles on social media:
