Weekly Crochet Schedule

A little change is coming to the Hook Nook!

Instead of tying our Crochet Basics, Workshops, and Stitch Fix tutorials to specific days of the week, I'm moving to a more flexible release schedule.

New tutorials will still be coming! They'll simply be released as they're ready, which gives me more time to create lessons that are actually useful instead of racing the calendar.

Our Wednesday Grounding Calls will remain on the calendar, and you'll be able to find all of our growing crochet resources anytime you need them.

Randomly
Crochet & Chat
OPEN | Facebook Live

No longer a regularly scheduled Monday Live.

Instead, I'm going to start going live when the mood hits! I'll do my best to give you some notice beforehand so you can grab your hook and join me when you're able.

Hopefully this makes our Lives feel a little more spontaneous and fun instead of becoming another thing on the weekly to do list.

Perfect for: All skill levels

Wednesday
Grounding Call
6:00 PM EST | Google Meet

Take a break from the busyness of life and join us for a relaxing hour of mindful making, encouragement, and connection. Crochet is optional. Community is not. Message for passcode.

Perfect for: Anyone needing a little peace in their week

Crochet Basics → New tutorials added regularly
Weekly Workshops → New workshops added as they’re ready

Getting Back Out There...At My Own Pace

This season is looking a little different for me. After having to step away from outdoor markets and events for a while due to health considerations, I’ve been much more intentional about what I add back to my calendar.

The good news is, I have strategically added several upcoming events!

I’ve spaced things out and chosen events with the hope that the cooler weather and my body will cooperate. I may still need to make adjustments along the way, but I’m excited to start getting Naturally MelissaMade back out into the community without overloading myself in the process.

You can see all of my upcoming events on the Community Calendar or visit my Where to Find Me page for the latest details about where I’ll be popping up next.

I’ll also continue sharing event announcements on social media and in my newsletter, especially if plans change.

And, of course, Naturally MelissaMade isn’t limited to in person events! You can still find handmade creations, crochet classes, free patterns, blog posts, and our growing Hook Nook community right here online.

I’m learning that showing up doesn’t have to mean showing up everywhere, all the time. Sometimes it means choosing where I spend my energy a little more carefully so I can truly enjoy being there when I do.

Whether we connect online or you stop by to see me at an upcoming event, I’m grateful you’re along for the journey.

Here’s to cooler weather, cooperative bodies, handmade adventures, and creating confidence one stitch at a time.
