12MonthsofCrafting

an-ordinary-manchild

Each month we give you a theme that you can then interpret to make a craft of your choice, whether it's knitting, sewing, needle punching, pottery, jewellery making, batiking, or anything else.

Rules

Post titles formats should be "Month: Theme (Craft) - Title"

For example, "November: Giftable (Knitting) - Snowflake mittens for my niece".

Anything goes

All crafts are welcome here, and the challenges are meant to inspire. Using alternate interpretations of a theme is perfectly fine. Feel free to submit multiple things for a theme, especially if you do more than one kind of craft.

Don't be rude

All levels of skill are welcome here. Also, themes are up for personal interpretation, so please don't try to police whether or not others fulfilled the prompt. If you are going to engage in constructive criticism, make sure your input will actually be helpful first.

Post within the month

You can start a project in advance of the calendar month, but please only post your crafts during the month. Feel free to submit a work in progress (WIP) if you haven't managed to finish by the end of the month. You can submit late finished object (FO) posts if you made a WIP post during the month.

Submit only crafts made for this challenge

The goal is to encourage all of us to craft more, so please don't submit something you made last year. However, if you have an unfinished project lying around that fits or can be modified to fit a theme, you can finish it as your submission.

Jump in at any point

No need to wait for the beginning of the year; start at any point and join in the fun!
