[FrogOnAMushroom]

sooooo cool
I don’t have this yarn color… maybe i’ll do next month’s challenge!
Unrelated, but does it have to be made this month or can it be previous?

[Sashacrochets]

Woa, didn’t know January’s birthstone is Garnet! I’ll definitely try to enter, this seems fun!

[TangerineQueen]

Ooh! My birthstone!!

I even have this ring! I need to make something for this!!

[FreyaW]

Cuteeee. I might make something small, I only have spittle of the colour. Can it be more of a red?

[BethuskaCrochet]

Nice ring and garnet is my birthstone too!

[TangerineQueen]

Ty! My dad got it for me!

Cool!

[Karametra]

Can I just use red yarn?

[ribbot]

Do your best to aim for the color but in the red family works!

[ribbot]

Do your best to aim for the color but within the red family works! <3

[ribbot]

Amazing!!!

[ribbot]

Can’t wait to see your submission! <3

[TheEnchantedCrafter]

Oh noooooo! I guess I’ll have to go get some yarn ;) I am planning on making a book sleeve!

[FalconThePheonix]

might do smth to go in my hair like I did for the December challenge or a scarf or smth

[princessgabalicious]

Everytime I hear Garnet i legit think of Garnet from Steven’s Universe… idk if that’s bad, but I may actually try to see if I make something (I have a lot of red/garnet beads so ideas are processing.)

[ArtsAndNaps]

How fun! I actually have yarn that’s perfect for this challenge! It’s color is Garnet I’ll definitely see if I have the time to make something

[GrymmCreeper]

Garnet is found in more colours than just red, are we only limited to red? I’ve been given Garnet pieces that were red, orange, or brown, and am now feeling like the orange and brown wouldn’t be allowed based on that mood board? Pls explain because my birth stone isn’t just red and when it is, it isn’t THAT kind of red so now I’m very confused and upset

@Ribblr

any creation inspired by the deep red hues of garnet.

I believe it has to be red!
