Random Acts of Crochet Kindness: Little projects to share the love
by Olivia Dieterich
Discover the worldwide movement spreading kindness and love through the power of crochet!
Create 25 sweet and simple crocheted items to label with love and place in your local community, ready to brighten someone else's day.
Random Acts of Crochet Kindness (RAOCK) has a simple purpose: create something special and then leave it out in the world for someone else to pick up and enjoy. These tiny acts of everyday magic have captivated fans worldwide - the #RandomActsOfCrochetKindness hashtag has been used by countless people sharing their testimonies of being touched by the thoughtfulness of strangers.
After a personal tragedy, author and founder Olivia Dieterich started the movement to channel her sadness into creativity. She found that in addition to the boost to her own mental health, each small act of kindness had a profound effect on someone else's day as well. Inside is everything you need to get involved:
- A beginner-friendly crochet how-to section, explaining every stitch and technique step by step
- 25 crochet patterns: a range of quick makes that you can create in under an hour, including flowers, rainbows, stars, hearts, smiley faces, a sunshine, and more
- 'Guest' designs from a range of well-known crochet designers, including Sarah-Jayne Fragola (@BellaCoco), Sarah-Jane Hicks (@flo_and_dot), Natasha Emmerson (@love.indy_) and Alexandra Lund (@nattythread)
- A guide to making labels, with templates to copy, wording to adapt or borrow, and ideas for where to place your 'acts of kindness'
- Olivia's story, the journey of RAOCK into a global movement, plus real-life stories from members of the group
Kindness is contagious, so pass it on!
