WEEK 10 Completion of CAL Mystery Afghan 2015

HURRAY EVERYBODY!!! It is finally completed :) I must say that I have definitely learned a lot of different crochet techniques and stitches that I have never seen or done.

I have two favorite stitch patterns that we used during this CAL.
My two favorites are the braiding technique and the cross treble technique!
I will definitely be using those techniques on future projects.

The pattern for week 10 can be found here:

Week 1 of 2015 CAL Mystery Afghan

I have been so excited and anxious for a week to FINALLY start the 2015 Mystery Afghan Crochet Along!!!!

Since today is Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2015... We got our first clue!!!
Which can be found at: http://www.yarnspirations.com/kal-cal#week1

I love the fact that that they have 3 different pattern options for you to see!!

1) Written out pattern 

2) Diagram

3) Video 

How helpful is that?? EXTREMELY!! Especially considering that its probably going to get a lot more complicating and I am definitely going to need the extra help!! LOL

So these are the 4 Colors I chose for this project!!

                    

My Main Color is Burgundy

My 3 Contrasting Colors are Off White, Pagoda, and Robins Egg.

All of the yarn that i will be using for this project are Caron Simply Soft. 

I am also using a H hook. 

WEEK 1

So, for the first week we are doing 20 Granny Squares, each measuring 4" X 4" (10cm X 10cm) They are all done in MC. 

I am very pleased to say that on my first square my measurements were perfect!!! YAY

Here is the result:

I cannot wait to see what the mystery afghan will look like!!! 

EXCITING!!!

That is all for today!! Gotta get working on these squares!!

Happy Crocheting Everyone!!!
