Hi everyone: I am posting my first post to the CAL forum. I just finished the KAL and was excited to finish the CAL. This is my first CAL. I think I am a better knitter than crocheter, but I have increased my crocheting skills on this CAL. I am calling my CAL, Daisies in a Meadow.

When it came to assembling it, I decided to use a braid stitch in white for a bit of contrast. As far as edging rounds, that has yet to be decided. Maybe white with a row of Soft Lilac in it.

Since I made two afghans in the 2010 CAL, there was no need to make a full-size afghan in this CAL. This shows one of my 2010 CAL afghans + pillow with the 2012 CAL baby blanket.


Very lovely work. I like the idea of using the motifs for a smaller afghan :bravo: .

The patterns in the CAL reminded me of flowers and the sun. So I made a sun and flowers design using stash yarns and decorated the drab partition walls at my office. Green ribbon was used for stems & grass. Of course, then I had to have a butterfly. A hummingbird was added later. The ladies at work really like this. It would be easy to make an afghan later using the flowers.



Very creative I love it! :bravo:

Thank you so much. It's not really blue--it's called Greek Sea and it's more green than blue. :knit:

Very nice work well done!

I love all the new pictures that have been posted since I last checked. It's amazing how many different looks that can be achieved from one CAL! My blanket is going to be a little different (and a little smaller). I can't wait to seam it and post it. :cloud9:
