Back in September members of the "Hooked on Murder, Dying to Crochet" Ravelry group got a chance to do just that! To take clues I've assembled from Betty Hechtman's first crochet murder book, "Hooked on Murder," to create a mystery project crochet along!
As it is now summer time -- and what better time to read when not crocheting? -- I thought it would be an excellent time to bring the Mystery Project Clues out of Ravelry and share them with everyone. ... however there are some rules I ask people to follow:
1. Print out as many copies as you need for you and/or your group to use. (If you are a librarian and would like to offer the Mystery CAL to your patrons, you have my blessing.)
2. Drop me an email or leave a comment here that you will be giving the Mystery Project a try.
3. If you have a blog, a website, or online group, Do NOT link back directly to the pattern. Rather I ask you link back to this blog entry, using this link:

4. If you'd like, email me pictures of your finished Mystery Project; I'd love to show them off here on my blog.
5. NO -- and I mean NO -- answers or hints will be provided by me -- so please do not contact me (or Betty) and ask/bribe ... well, maybe bribe, if it's really yummy yarn ...
OK that's it. CLICK HERE for your free PDF Murder Mystery Crochet Project Clues -- you will need adobe to view it:
NOTE: Betty has two other crochet murder mystery books available for your summertime reading pleasure:
I wanted to do this when you first posted it on Ravelry but life (and crocheting for baby :) ) got in the way!! I would love to do it. Let me see if I can find my copy of the book! I'll have to juggle it with the other CAL I'm doing too but it will be fun to switch between projects!
ReplyDeleteI have read Betty's first 2 books and have the third, but am waiting to get some other things done before I start reading it. I know I won't want to put it down. I have started the mystery crochet-a-long. There is one color of yarn that I don't have (imagine that) and need to go get a skein.
