Knit-Along Clue 4

[Lairy]

Dropped stitch -- somehow somewhere - big hole

I am nowhere near an experienced enough knitter to recover in this complicated of a pattern - can barely do it in the basic garter.....boo hoo. Ripping out and back to clue 1 for me! It's not like don't still have 3 squares to do there!

No rest for the weary beginner!

Well, now that pics are being posted it seems the "hole" was a blessing in disguise -- my first half looked nothing like it was supposed to.... Practice practice practice - 2 1/2 in clue 1 and 2 in clue 2 left to do!

Wonderful and easy clue.
Are these the last four squares?

Key word: SQUARES
There will be more clues

Oh goody goody! Wonder what it'll be...triangles? Panels? Love the mystery!!!

Lairy, I think it's cool that you are chugging along! Like Shandeh once said, it's by making lots of mistakes that we learn so much more. I was a weary intermediate with definite clue 3 issues, but I have taken two days off of knitting, despite the new clue, and feel ready to pick up the sticks again. I think I'll go ahead with clue 4 and then perhaps the mysteries of clue 3 will become apparent to me (along with Marilyn in Wisconsin's wise advice, which seems to best address the difficulty I'm having.)

Well, I have finally finished one of the clues for the KAL, clue #2. I was so excited to get to put up the badge but I can't since I have the badges for the CAL clues #1-4. I am very sad ! At least I can try out clue #4 now. I have managed to get at least one done of all the other KAL clues. Can't wait for the make up week.

Just about through with my first clue 4. I have a dusty green and a dark brown. I was beginning
to think that the brown was too dark a contrast, but I think I'm going to like it. I've begun blocking a
few pieces, it's not near as much fun as knitting.

Thanks, Bernat, for another KAL, I learned SO much on the first one, who thought I could cable !!
What a great gift for my daughter, I know she'll be pleased.

did you change needle size at all for clue 4 I have done one square of clue 3 and one side seems smaller even thou I used a smaller needle for the first 1/2 now I am doing clue 4 and wonder if I have to change the needle size

TRUDI THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PRINT OUT i WAS SO FRUSTRATED WITH CLUE 3 I FROGED IT 3 TIMES BEFORE I GOT IT AND THANKS TO YOU I GOT THIS ONE RIGHT AWAY.

I have only worked on this clue a little bit during my lunch break today and it is already my favorite square. Partly is because colors A and B (Greek Sea/Aqua Frost) are my favorite of the 5. Most of all I really love this pattern and especially because it pulls all of the previous clues together. Hope to post some pictures this weekend. Now I anxiously get back to my knitting.

i finished one square of clue 4 and decided to go back to clue 3 and finish up. I will probably be finished of all 4 clues by next Wednesday and then it will be a catch up week. Murphy's law rules again. LOL

A friend was struck by a car!

Oh no! I hope your friend is ok!

He's progressing it still a long road ahead!

I just finished my first square of clue #4 and I have a 9.5x10.0 square. For clue #3 I had to rip the first try and then knit very tight on the second try. I was using #9 needles and then had 9.5x9.5 squares. However the tight knitting causes pain so this time I will use #8 for the first half and #9 for the second. I really like the contrast, as my colors a white white and grape. The grape is my A color and afghan for GD.
