Thank you posting the photo. I thought it was supposed to look like an actual square and kept taking it apart. Lol

 

Your colors look awesome together!

I agree - the photo helped immensely! My finished product is sort of square-ish!!

[kittyloverdeb]

So the first "square" isn't square?

[nicolep]

I'm sure it will be square once joined. It's the chain 4 loops in the corners that are making it look slightly unsquareish.

Oooh, I just sent the clue up to my husband for him to print for me, lol. Maybe if this boy falls asleep, ever, I can attempt to get one done. Though a nap sounds good, too!

Those look really good! I have half of mine done.

I have been thinking that I can adapt this very quick square to use in the Charity ghan I want to make this month. I'll get rid of those ch 5 corners and add a row for my continuous join. It would go very quickly I'm thinking

I was just following links from an enewsletter and I found out that my colour personality is

I actually think that is a good match and it touches my choices for this CAL... if you let your mind wander

 

Take the test - it can't hurt ... right

Lol! He's Still not totally asleep. Though it would be better for me to work one while he's fussy, but I think I'm going to go for the nap (fingers crossed he falls into a real sleep) because in the afternoons he tends to refuse to sleep for Hours...I can try to get one in then!! Plus...I still need to figure out which of my colors is going to be the accent...or contrast...or whatever it's called!!

I've just made my first square:cheer they do work up quickly don't they!

Thankyou:hug I'm off to make some more:hook:hook

I'm really considering doing the knit one, too. I'm afraid I'll get overwhelmed down the line with the clues though. What to do, what to do?!?!

[Joyfulghans]

My color personality is:

 

Spice

What?????? I hate orange! And, shades of orange are what they recommended! Maybe that doesn't work for everyone.

 

Now to get some work done on the CAL. The KAL feels overwhelming already! That's probably a bad sign.

[Joyfulghans]

Okay, just finished my first CAL square! They're wagon-wheels! I was expecting a much harder week to start out! I wonder if the Mystery CAL Afghan is the Prairie Excursions "Quilt"??? It was originally published around 1903/1904 and redistributed by Crisco, in their "Thread Quilts" book, during the Depression. By the way, if anyone has a copy of the original 1903/1904 pattern (it was newsprint), I would love to buy it or trade for it! It was published through a New York Times advertisement and sold for a nickel! Your nickel really bought a lot more in those days!

 

I'll get these squares finished and post a picture!

 

Why, oh, why did I promise my mother a knitted afghan? The KAL is just ...

[PBLKNP]

I just updated my blog, pertaining to the CAL...don't worry, no spoilers!

I just got the KAL clue but I don't think I could do both of them. Maybe when I see it done I can try some of the parts.

 

The thing is the SEWING together would be a deal breaker

Sewing...really? Well, that seals it for me. Nope, won't be doing the KAL.

I'm sorry. did I do something wrong by posting pics

 

I figured everyone would have one to look at today anyway. Sorry, won't do that again.

I don't think you did wrong. We all posted pictures the first day during the last one. I'll go with what the majority wants though.

The sewing doesn't bother me with the KAL. The first clue consists of squares worked corner-to-corner which I find absolutely impossible! Heck, I have to sew together crochet squares all the time, so it's not a big deal. Although, I do prefer working on giant grannies. They don't take much time AND there's no sewing! I guess I'm not wild about sewing!

I asked earlier in the thread if people posted their work each week and was told "Yes". I plan on posting pictures of my work later, hopefully I'll have at least one knitted square finished as well.

 

Can't wait to see everyone's progress! Back to .
