inside: Join the Summer Fun CAL / KAL to explore exciting crochet and knit patterns perfect for outdoor gatherings this summer.
Now through the end of August is the Crochet Foundry Summer Fun CAL / KAL, and we are so excited to share all these fab crochet and knit patterns with you!
The Patterns and Theme
The patterns for the Summer Fun CAL / KAL are all patterns that would work for an outdoor summer gathering. Most of the patterns were originally part of the Jessie At Home Patriotic Party CAL / KAL in 2015. The yarn used for most of them has been discontinued, and most of the patterns could use a little TLC. So before the patterns are added to the Summer Fun CAL / KAL, they are each being updated.
There will also be some new patterns. If one of the old patterns is only available knit or crochet, not both, then a pattern for the other skill will most likely be added. There may even be a few others added based on suggestions from the community. Stay tuned to this site and to our newsletter for updates on our community.
How it Works
Throughout the summer, we will post various patterns for this CAL. Most of the patterns will be free on the ad-supported Jessie At Home site. You will be able to purchase ad-free PDFs of the patterns from Crochet Foundry as well. There will be a coupon code for paid Patrion patrons to get the PDFs for free. When the CAL ends, the coupon code will no longer be active.
You will find a linked list of all the patterns in this CAL / KAL at the end of this post. The list will be updated each time a new pattern is added.
CAL / KAL posts on Crochet Foundry
Most of the patterns will be sets – one crochet version and one knit version. Once the set is ready for the CAL / KAL, it will be added to the main linked list at the end of this post, and a new blog article about the set will be posted on this blog. The Crochet Foundry articles will include some or all of the following:
- links for helpful tutorials
- modification ideas in addition to those listed in the patterns themselves
- video tutorials for some of the modification ideas
- picture of some of the modifications
- anything else we think will be useful for you!
Share and Ask Questions
We have JUST set up our discord server for Jessie At Home, including Crochet Foundry. You can join HERE. You’ll be able to share your progress, ask questions, chat and learn in the server. In addition, there are other channels for knit, crochet, crafts, chat, and more. Come and join us!
The Patterns – Linked List
As each pattern is ready for the CAL / KAL it will be added below and linked to the online pattern. The printable PDFs for each pattern can also be found on CrochetFoundry.com. Most will have an option to buy just the pattern PDF, or the pattern along with bonus printables for a dollar more.
At The Foundry Patreon paid members can get the pattern PDFs with the printables at 100% off with the code:

The code will only work for paid members. If it doesn’t work for you and you believe it should, please email us at [email protected]. When August ends, the code will no longer work for these patterns.
