Andra Lighthouse has launched a project to measure yards of yarn makers use in their crochet projects – the goal: 420,464,000 yards to get to the distance of the moon! The Official start date of the project was: October 13th, 2020 and the projected end date is: October 13th, 2025.

The rules are simple, and if you are crocheting something anyway, why not throw in your yardage to Andra’s project! Then YOU can say you helped crochet to the moon!

Please only log yardage you have used since you pledged to crochet to the moon. Yardage you crochet and/or knit before then does not count. (you can find all of the guidelines HERE)

She recommends entering your yardage when you finish a skein since the skein will be clear about how many yards it is, but figure out the method that works best for you! You can log your yardage by completing a form on the Crochet to the Moon site. Fill out the form there any time you would like, and she will update the page regularly with progress. The first time you fill out the form is your official pledge to crochet to the moon.

Send pictures as messages on Instagram to @crochet_to_the_moon, and we will post them to the feed here!

Join us our Facebook community to discuss what you’re working on.
