Here is my Stitch Sampler - 57 rows done. This pic washes the colors out some, but I'm not going to try to get a better one tonight!

 

Pretty, pretty! Love the light and breezy colors you chose for your Stitch Sampler, PAndrus. Beautifully done!

I ran out of peach yarn so I thought I would put up an update picture even though I only made it to row 28. I have to wait to buy more yarn until I use up some of my other yarn on WIPs. Hopefully I can go get more by the end of the week!

Dear Kath and CAL friends,

 

I'm a newbie in Ville. I wud love to join u guys in CAL. I found this thread a couple of days back. I liked the throw very much. I love to use multiple colors and love to learn different stitch varieties and this throw is very apt for a person of my taste.

 

I ordered the book from my local library and got it today. Yay...Im gonna start now!

 

If u have any suggestions on colors/combinations pls advise me.

 

Thanks.

Monica

Hi Monica! Welcome!

We would love to have you join us!

I will be honest with you. You can't go wrong with any colors with this pattern.

Ive done one in the ugliest colors on the planet and it works.

Some folks did 2 color, some 10.

They all work.

Because of the textures in this afghan all colors work together just wonderfully, its kind of a miracle of the pattern!

Have fun and be sure to share pics!

Ive done a few and part way through I wasnt sure about the colors, but kept going and somehow as you go alone it just works.

Here is a more current pic of my afghan - I'm working on row 69 now. I think I'm going to run out of yarn before I get to the end of the pattern, but it'll still be large enough. I love this pattern!

Glad it was helpful! I never for the life of me thought this CAL would take off the way it did. So it was time to make it a little more organized.

Thanks Jeanne! It's in the dryer at the moment! I hope its as soft and yummy as it looks!

I was looking for the pictures every day in each page. Consolidated links will help the newcomers like me to glimpse at others afghans. Also it will attract new members to join the CAL.

Thanks for the effort!

I love your colors. Did you do all of the rows? If so how big did does the blanket measure?

[kittyloverdeb]

Oh I love it! That is adorable in the baby colors! Did you use a "G" hook? I'm going to start one for a baby as soon as I finish the bag I'm working on.

What a grand idea, Kath! I look forward to checking out all of the photos you've gathered together, as I'm sure I missed a few. Thank you!

Hi Kath,

Thanks, this group is always so encouraging and quick to say such kind things! I have really come to enjoy our CAL so much!

Yeah I really love to look at them too, especially when preparing for a new one so this helped me too.

 

I love your colors. Did you do all of the rows? If so how big did does the blanket measure?

 

Yeah I did all 81 rows. I did not measure (I can try later today if I remember before I put it away) it but it's not a 36x36 that's for sure. I'd say probably very close to 48x48 if not a tad larger.

 

Oh I love it! That is adorable in the baby colors! Did you use a "G" hook? I'm going to start one for a baby as soon as I finish the bag I'm working on.

 

Yes I used a G hook, Id just recommend you keep an eye on its size, it gets quite large compared to the standard baby blanket size. And of course you can stop any size/any row. But I prefer a larger blanket for a baby.

 

What a grand idea, Kath! I look forward to checking out all of the photos you've gathered together, as I'm sure I missed a few. Thank you!

 

And of course I forgot yours Jeannej! but it's there now!! *giggle*
