The fourth annual PlanetJune Reindeer Games CAL begins tomorrow! The Reindeer Games is the annual PlanetJune end-of-year crochet-along and online community event, and you can join by submitting photos of your PJ projects to the gallery, and chatting with us in the CAL threads on Discord and Ravelry. Everyone is very welcome, and I can’t wait to see the gallery of beautiful projects that will emerge as we head toward the end of the year – I hope you’ll join us!
Reindeer Games 2024 CAL
Crochet anything PlanetJune as part of the PlanetJune Reindeer Games 2024 (Friday, Nov 1 – Tuesday, Dec 31).
The idea of the games is to challenge yourself by starting and finishing crochet project(s) before the end of the year. It’s just for fun, like a CAL but you get to choose your projects – anything PlanetJune, including projects from my books – and earn virtual awards!
For the fullest experience, join in the fun in one of the PlanetJune Community groups. Look for the Reindeer Games 2024 thread on Ravelry or the #reindeer-games-2024 channel on Discord. (You can also participate by submitting your projects directly to the gallery through the new online form.)
Check out the Reindeer Games site where you can find full instructions, the list of stalls (categories) and antlers (bonus awards) you can win, the 2024 games stats and project gallery, and archives from the previous years’ games.
It’s always so much fun – we’re a cozy group of crafty friends, crocheting and chatting away. As we’re based all over the world, we can compare our holiday traditions, share recipes, and encourage each other as we crochet. We’d love to welcome you to the party in either of our groups.
Project Ideas
You can enter the Reindeer Games by making absolutely anything based on a PlanetJune pattern (or something from any of my books) – so you have hundreds of crochet patterns to choose from (including dozens of free options, if cashflow is tight).
Realistic animals, elegant accessories, unique toys, seasonal decor – there’s something for everyone…
Take a look at the PlanetJune shop for more pattern inspiration, or grab your copy of any of my books and pick a pattern. 🙂
Join Us!
I do hope you’ll join us for the Reindeer Games 2024 – it’s going to be so much fun, and I can’t wait to see the project gallery filled to the brim again with our beautiful crocheted projects by the end of the year. Whether you’re trying to finish some WIPs, crocheting Christmas gifts, making pieces to sell, or treating yourself to that PlanetJune pattern you’ve had your eye on, we’ll cheer you on as you work towards your crochet goals, and we’re ready to celebrate your successes with you!
