Learn to crochet swap #2: Half double crochet

Hi, there! Come and learn some crochet with me! We will each have one partner and crochet a small item/project using this month's technique somewhere in the pattern.

Important to note: Beginning and seasoned crocheters are welcome to join!!! BUT please be sure before signing up that you are able to crochet the technique! The item you make and send is up to the sender so you can get started right away on your project to make sure you can do it. These are not all easy or beginning stitches, so please plan accordingly.

Any pattern and yarn are acceptable! Dishcloths, granny squares, scarfs, stuffies, ornaments, slippers, etc. The possibilities are endless. It would be great if you could send along the pattern you used as well, but this is optional.

(USA only please, feel free to create an international similar swap. Seasoned swappers only. At least 4.9 rating or higher and 5 rated package swaps completed. You must have signed in to swap-bot at least 2 days before the sign up date.)
