National Craft Making Month Challenge

[ladythmpr]

Hi all!

October will be here in 2 DAYS! Since 2008, October for me has been National Craft Making Month, or NaCraMaMo for short. NaCraMaMo started as a community on LJ, and I started a new nacramamo community on DreamWidth when I moved here in 2017.

In short, during National Craft Making Month in October, you work on a craft every day for a month and post pictures of your work daily in nacramamo. nacramamo is very free-form; you can work on the same project every day or work on different projects every day. Crafting is also very loosely defined; it's basically anything that you do with your hands that results in a tangible object. For example, I count baking as crafting, but I don't count making dinner as crafting (but you might!)

A lot of people use nacramamo as a jumpstart for Halloween projects and Winter holiday gift making.

I'll be there, though who knows what I will be doing or how often I will post (I sure don't!) even given the "daily posting" in the community description, because this is the second October I'm dealing with some as-yet-diagnosed fatigue thing. But I love the crafting challenge, so I'll be giving it the best shot that I can.

I'd love to have you join me, giving it your best shot.

Joined, and added the community to my list of cool DW comms. I don't know if I'll have the oomph to craft every day, but it sounds like a fun challenge AND I'll be crafting more in October anyway as I have some things that really need doing, plus Nerdopolis (another crafting challenge) is kicking off another tournament on Ravelry in October, so. Yes. CRAFT ALL THE THINGS!
