This year’s Twelve Months of On-the-Go Projects, created by members of our PieceWork team, is our way of thanking our All Access subscribers for being such valued members of our community. Each of the upcoming monthly patterns was designed to be quick, fun, and portable. The projects will encompass a variety of crafts, so that you can sample an array of different techniques year-round.
This quick project is easy to take on the go, whether you’re flying to your in-laws’ for the holidays, driving to your sister’s, or traveling over the river and through the woods to your grandmother’s house. Select traditional Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa colors—or be creatively colorful!
