I’m all set and ready to go for the new Scheepjes Mini-MAL! Have you heard of it already? It’s appropriately named a ShroomAlong and has been designed by one of our newest Scheepjes bloggers, Matt, from A Boy & Bunting. The official start date is tomorrow, June 4th, 2018! No, don’t worry all you North American digital date readers, you didn’t miss it back in April! haha There’s still time!
If you’d like to see the product we’ll be making ‘live’ you can get a good view of it in Matt’s video that I’ve posted below. I’ve set the video to start around the time he shows the mushroom, but please, do yourself a favour and check out his other videos. He’s adorable and hilarious.

Omg, how cute is that shroom!! This was something I really wanted to make and I’m not surprised that Scheepjes jumped on it and decided to make a little MAL out of it. After some of the *cough* large MAL’s we have had recently (SORRY, NOT SORRY!), I think this adorable project, that guarantees quick satisfaction, is just what we all need! I’m not even really all that much of a crocheter, being a knitter at heart, but even I had to have this one.
The original pattern calls for Scheepjes Cahlista, but apparently the Scheepjes elves decided just the crocheting alone wasn’t challenging enough and sent me Scheepjes Catona instead! I’m sure I’ll make it work, but oh they are little tricksters, aren’t they? Making me think on a Sunday. That’s just some cruel business right there.
If you would like to join in the fun, like all of the Scheepjes-Alongs, you can find all information and support in the Official Scheepjes Facebook groups:
Scheepjes Official International Group (English)
Scheepjes Officiële Nederlandse Groep (Dutch)
I know the official start date is tomorrow, but don’t feel like you’ve missed out if you don’t have your supplies already. The MAL will officially run for two weeks, which is way more time than is needed to make it. You will always find people working on past projects in the groups anyway, so none of the MALs / CALs ever truly end. You’ll just be … fashionably late!

International customers can find Scheepjes Cahlista at Woolwarehouse and Black Sheep Wools.
