This was quite fun but not what I expected. I was disappointed when I saw the final layout but having moved clue 4 to the outside edges and put it all together it does actually look really nice. Putting the various colours in the border has made it all tie in nicely!!!!! Can't wait until there's another CAL, had so much fun and loved seeing everyone else's really helped. There's so many amazing afghans, and really loving all the colours!!!! :D

Not colors I would have chosen, but were dictated by what was available in a giant bag of free yarn. The variegated yarn looked horrible in the original pattern, so I stole a little here and tweaked a little there to come up with the finished afghan. This was my first CAL, but certainly won't be my last.

Finished my blanket last week, and I'm finally getting around to posting it.

First, to Bernat, THANK YOU so much for this great crochet-along! I had so much fun doing it, and I learned so much along the way! I look forward to doing another one soon.

I didn't care for the layout or the border given, so I made up my own. I used Waverly Sundrift for my MC, and Loops & Threads Impeccable in Fern, Forest, Deep Forest, and Amethyst for A, B, C, and D.

Anxiously awaiting the next one! I love seeing everyone's finished projects!

Does anyone else get the feeling that Bernat suggested a single crochet border on purpose? :hrmm: Just to see what creative ideas everyone could come up with on their own. Most of the borders that I've seen are very distinctive and really do play up the overall theme of the blankets! Thanks Bernat for bringing out the creativity in everyone!
