Who's game for a Crochet-a-long????

Well, it's Christmas time again and I am participating in a Crochet-a-long this year with Miss Heidi over at Snappy Tots. Her CAL is to create an Advent Calendar from November 5th to November 20th, with each day she posts the day's pattern created by some awesome designers.
Day 1 came from Little Pink Thread (me & my sis, Emily), the pattern was for a Snowman's Head

If you feel like participating please hop on over to the Snappy Tot blog and pick up yesterday's pattern by clicking HERE and this will take you to low-down on the CAL as well as the pattern for the snowman's head pictured above.  There are two patterns available per day so you can pick which one suits you and your style.

Day 2 comes to use from Colleen over at Tricity Hokes Creations, she created a little beanie pattern to add to the advent calendar.

Click the picture to hop over to the post for the Christmas beanie post at Snappy Tots where you can get the downloadable pattern.

I will post a link to each day's patterns for you here so you can check back every day as we CAL to create a beautiful Advent Calendar or ornaments depending on how you choose to use them.
We are planning on hanging them on out Advent Tree (a branch painted white and put into a bucket).

Hope you will join us for a wonderful Christmas Crochet-a-long.
