gaby,

Don't know if this suggestion is too late, but if a couple of your motifs are too little, could you not just do another row around it in single or double crochet, whichever would get it up to size? :huh:
That is, if you have a little bit more thread in those colors. Just an idea.... I also liked another person's idea about a matching pillow, but I see you don't have that much yarn left!

Good luck to you.

I like your layout! Nice and symmetrical :)

Neat! For some reason, this layout reminds me of chemistry class. Those models of the chemical make-up of water, etc.

I've recommended that before, because it just makes sense, doesn't it?

I know we keep saying 15 weeks, but does anyone know where that is posted? According to the main CAL/KAL page, it goes through April. That is closer to 10 or so (which makes more sense than 15 considering we only have to piece together and do a border).


I seem to recall from reading posts that we have one more motif to go. Maybe we don't, but I think I remember reading that. Maybe Shandeh, can clarify. I think it was she or Jen who may have said that about one more motif.

Laina :knit:


All the crochet motifs are completed with Clue #6. All that's left now is seaming, and adding a border.
Those instructions will be posted in later clues.


Thanks, Shandeh. Good to know. Somehow I thought I heard (read) there was one more. :-)

Thanks, Zanie and Shandeh for the photo comment.

Before I begin blocking, I thought I'd play with my puzzle again. Can't tell you how many times I've rearranged. It's been fun! Missed taking pictures of most.

So here's my last try. hee hee I like this one much better and it uses all of the motifs this time.

even though you did not use waverly, we want to see it!! I am sure they do not care, many have used other yarn :thumbsup:
