Meadow Blanket CAL Begins

What better way to take my mind off my worries than to begin a new blanket project?  Today is the day Lucy at Attic24 launched her new blanket design.  15 glorious, summery colors of squishy soft Stylecraft Special yarn from England!  I cleared out my trolley and have it all set up for action.


I've printed up the color sequence so I can know which one to use next.  I'm itching to get my hook into this and make my first few rows.  I need to decide how big to make it, but it's not going to be too big.


Lucy always does a "color sample" and I will do the "color sample repeat".  I like the colors melting into each other and repeating it for order in my brain.  


I will be well into this by my next blog post on Monday.  Are you doing this CAL?  (Crochet-A-Long).


One of the Jadeite Junkies asked about a teapot that would go with the dishes so I found mine and took a photo of it.  :-)


Thank you all for your comments on my last post.  I am hoping for our country to unify and heal.  I will do my part.  ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

  7. What beautiful colors for your blanket. It will be fun watching as you progress through the stitiches, rows and colors. Lucy always designs magical blankets.
    But that teapot!!! It's gorgeous. Is it new?
    I'm sure praying a LOT for our country. There is a lot of healing that needs to take place.

  10. Everyone is making that blanket. It's a beauty. I did one of her CAL years ago but found out the hard way my cats will destroy any yarny type blanket so I never used the pretty thing. It live in a box under my bed. I should gift it to a kitty less friend. Araignee
