Made for you
Once you have more than one project on the go, details start slipping: which hook did you use for that hat, which page was the pattern on, how much did that yarn cost? This crochet planner printable keeps all of it on paper in one place.
The project page gives you space to record the project name, who it's for, the book or ebook and page the pattern came from, the yarn and hook used, sizes, quantity, and start and end dates. Below that, boxes for idea, color and notes let you jot down modifications you'll want to remember next time.
The monthly planner has a Monday-to-Sunday grid, a section for goals of the month and a to-do list, which is useful if you're making gifts to a deadline or working through a list of projects.
The design space is a blank page for sketching your own ideas, color layouts or stitch charts.
The crochet inventory is a table with columns for material, color, size and cost, so you can see what's in your stash before buying more.
Two reference pages list common abbreviations with their US and UK names side by side, from ch and sl st through sc, hdc, dc, tr and dtr, decreases such as sc2tog and dc3tog, clusters, popcorns, shells, picots, front and back post stitches, and working terms like beg, rep, rnd and sp. Keep it next to your hook when you switch between patterns from different countries.
Print as many project pages as you need, punch them for a binder, or fill them in digitally with a PDF app on a tablet.
