Sara from My Merry Messy Life (link party co-hostess extraordinaire!) approached me and several other crochet bloggers and designers recently about joining forces in a crochet-a-long for charity – so of course I said yes! The Crochet for Cancer Crochet-a-Long is a wonderful opportunity to use crochet as a force of good, and to make it extra exciting, Red Heart Yarn has donated a lovely prize package for one super quick crocheter!

Crocheters are remarkably generous people. They give their time and talents to friends and loved ones, often just for the joy of seeing a smile on the other person’s face. And there are dozens of charity groups, large and small, that focus on crocheting to help others. Many of those have specific needs and requirements. Today I would like to share some patterns you don’t have to be part of a group to make – but they all promote awareness and activism right in the design! Perfect for fundraisers or just letting someone know they’re loved. A lot of the patterns are pink, but it’s easy to change the color as appropriate. Here are 10 free crochet for a cause patterns! (One warning – one of these patterns contains three quarters of a swear word.)
