My first time too. I'm excited but nervious that I won't like the finished product. I took a look at the last one (2010) it was beautiful. Now to pick the right colors!

I purchased the Bernat 'town & country' group of colors that was suggested, but didn't write down which color is contrast A B C or D. Can someone help me with this, please? I know which is the MC as I bought 5 skeins of that color. lol

I think that A B and C are all the same approx amounts and D is a bit less although you should have bought 2 skeins of A B C and D. So it is up to you which color you want as your "pop" accent color.

ETA: another thread posted that for the CAL is MC 49%, 14% for A B and C, and 9% for D

This is also my first time doing a CAL/KAL. I have two color schemes to choose from depending on what the first block looks like.

Is there any way these can be joined as we go???? I also hate joining but have found if I join as I go it is not too bad.

When will the first clue be posted. AM or PM????

thanks,

Donna

Hi Cheryl,

I read through the Waverly Color Tutorial, and found this discussion by one of the Waverly interior designers.
Is this what you are asking about?

Nope. The mystery will be revealed too soon if we join as we go. We must keep everything in pieces until the end.

Hello, Yes, that would be what I was referring to, but now I see that won't work anyway because I chose antique as my main color. Oh well, I'm really anxious to start this afghan,
THANKS,
