Welcome back to The Crochet Stitch, the weekly crochet podcast from Yarn Over Hook, the global home of crochet.

View the Newsletter: Happy Worldwide Crochet in Public Day

Today is Worldwide Crochet in Public Day, and we are celebrating one of the simplest, most joyful ways to make crochet visible: taking your current project somewhere out in the world.

You do not need a big plan.

You do not need a perfect project.

You do not need an official event.

You just need your yarn, your hook, and a place where crochet can be seen.

In this special episode, we talk about what Worldwide Crochet in Public Day is, why it matters, and how crocheters can participate from almost anywhere. Maybe you are stitching at a local yarn shop, a coffee shop table, a library chair, a park bench, or your favorite crochet-friendly community space. Wherever you are, one crocheter in public still counts.

We also invite you to take the Yarn Over Hook Crochet Spot Quiz to find your perfect public crochet personality. Are you a Library Stitcher, Park Picnic Maker, Café Crocheter, Local Yarn Shop Loyalist, or Creative Wildcard?

Then we share simple ways to make the most of Crochet in Public Day, including visiting a local yarn shop, bringing a portable project to a park, inviting a friend for a mini sit-and-stitch, checking local event listings, or creating your own small crochet moment.

We would also love to hear where you are stitching today. Share your project, your setup, your yarn shop visit, your café table, or your favorite public crochet spot. Tag Yarn Over Hook on Instagram and invite a crochet friend to take the quiz too.

Worldwide Crochet in Public Day is a beautiful reminder that crochet is community. Every stitch, every conversation, every curious question, and every project shared helps make crochet more visible in the world.

So grab your yarn, take your crochet somewhere public if you are able, and let the craft be seen.

Keep creating. Keep learning. Keep connecting.

Yarn Over Hook helps crocheters create, learn, and connect.
