[Wrennie]

[way2gomom]

I'm in! (And due in August, too!) I'll start tonight after dinner

[nicolep]

The first clue!

 

I'll get started tonight.

[tobybob]

This sounds like a lot of fun. I'll have to gather some yarn and my hook.

[Amilyndra]

I've never worked with such a large hook, as I tend to make tight stitches. Quite an interesting experience. I worked the first round in yellow and realized that's the only bright color I have! I tend to prefer earth tones and darker colors. Time to send my daughter to the store to get me some bright colors!

[TCarra]

I've been out of power since last night and it just came back on a short while ago. It was TORTURE wondering about the first clue!... Believe me. My mango Caron yarn was just sitting there all day, taunting me!

oh no! no need to run out and BUY yarn for this! i only said bright colors because well summer and those colors go together but if you prefer other colors then by all means make it in colors that you will love and use!

[Amilyndra]

Too late! Sent my daughter out this morning. I don't mind. I've wanted to get these colors for awhile now. How often will clues be put up?

[gumby28]

I just found this thread and can't wait to join in. I will not be able to start until Wednesday, the afghan I'm working on has to be done by then.

[paulam01]

I dont think i have any bright colors yarn. all i have mostly dark colors. I am going to be good not to buy any more yarn.

[marpan79]

Yea!!!! I brought home yarn, but it's not bright although I like bright. Just didn't have enough already sitting there I'm going to do this today though after a trip to walmart just in case anything jumps into my cart

[Cheeria]

[marpan79]

Sat down to start this and am already having trouble on round 2 I think I'm doing what it says, but it's not seeming right to me So I'll be anxious to see the result
