May 2013 CAL


I'm so excited to have joined in on my first ever CAL.

I saw the invitation to join in on Stitchy's blog and just couldn't resist!!!

I don't know whether I'll manage it or not as there might be things I've never attempted before, but that's the way to learn, jump right in and have a go!!!
I'm so excited at this challenge and thank Stitchy Mc Floss for starting it.
:)

I picked up my thread and hook last night and got started.

I'm using a pink #10 thread with a 1.75mm hook as I don't have the hook number required.
I'm really enjoying it, but I have noticed that I can see where I joined it at the end of the rounds, so I think maybe I joined too high up the stitch. I'll try different things as I go along and see what I prefer the look of.
Anyhow, this is it so far, just starting round 9.

  1. Oh I think it looks perfect! I love the color, too. I hope you have fun during our CAL.

    There might even be another one in June, too.

    Blessings always

  3. Thanks Stitchy!!
    :)

    If it turns out well, I'm sure I'd love to try another CAL as well.

    I'm glad there's going to be at least 3 of us, it'll be fun to watch each others progess.
    I think you'll both finish way before I do though!!

    I think the chances of you turning me into a thready look pretty high at this moment!! haha
    I'm even looking at all my poor abandoned cross stitch threads and wondering what they'd be like to crochet with!!! LOL
