101-106/365 Bernat CAL Clue #2

by Bernat

I finished Clue 2 for my blueberry afghan. I really like this motif. I've seen others done in multiple colors, but I am trying to stick to the spirit of the CAL as much as possible (without actually using Bernat yarns, of course). So mine are done per the instructions, with 2 in my main color and 4 in color A. The third and fourth clues have been released already. I'll get on those after I do clue 2 for my artichoke afghan.

077-088/365 - Bernat CAL Clue #1

by Bernat

Yes, I joined another mystery CAL. There are no photos with the patterns, but each one is charted. SO you have a basic idea of what the finished motif will look like. Also, it's very scripted. You're told to choose 1 main color, 3 coordinating contrast colors, and 1 contrasting color from a different color family. Then you're told exactly how many of each motif to work and in what colors.

This is my color inspiration for this afghan:

I absolutely adore the Design Seeds web site! So many cool color combinations. I can get lost just perusing the pictures.

This one went off without a hitch. I even managed to read the entire pattern correctly. (;

This square is part of a mystery crochet-along in an email group to which I belong. This is the first square. There have been several patterns released to the group so far ... I have only just finished this one. /= I need to get busy.
