Knit-Along Week 5

[witknit]

awwwwwwwww I'm so sad. I was all set for a new clue. This will be a long week.
Guess I'll work on some left behind projects......looking forward to next week!

My fingers thank you! I have just 3 squares to make up. Two from the first week as I got a late start. I am already thinking of all the extra time I will have this week for all the other things that need my attention because I have been so busy with my afghan.

We'll all just have to cope with the suspense of... how will this thing look once we have it put together. I am still wondering if it will only be our color A that will be used for the boarder or between panels? Loving the mystery!

Like spring cleaning.....and getting into the garden for the first time (I see lots of opportunity for pruning!)
I'm pretty sure the rest will only involve colour A - all I have left for yarn is 3 skeins of A. Bernat has been very good about the quantities; my B, C, D, and E are all used up except for a few yards of each skein left. I love it that we don't run out and have to join a new skein as we go.... Just colour changes. That may change with the borders, though.

Yeah!! a catch up week I so needed it. I'm almost done with my fourth one for clue 4 and then I still have 11 or 12 other squares to do from other clues. I haven't finished one KAL clue yet but tonight I will. And even the clue for the CAL is an easy one this week, so I might even get those caught up.

Oh good, I still have 4 of clue 3 to do. I have been keeping up with blocking as I go. This has been so much fun! Happy knitting everyone!

Great timing ! I have finished Clue 1 and 3/4 of a square away from finishing Clue 2. I peeked at the instructions for 3 and 4, but I am determined to do them all in order and was beginning to fall so far behind I was getting discouraged. Looking forward to catching up and perfecting my squares by blocking them. Blocking is to knitting what ironing is to sewing; it makes all your hard work shine. Happy knitting, people.

Great time for a catch up week. With all the extra time, I will be able to redo my mistake squares. I am still not sure if I will be blocking my squares. They are fairly close to being square and my edges seem straight. I might change my mind.

Guess I better get back to so I can start playing with possibilities.

I am not sure if I will block my squares either, I always thought that blocking did not work on acrylic. However, after looking at the blocked/unblocked pictures others have posted, I can see it does make a difference.
Someone used a clothes steamer to block and I have never used this method so I may give it a go.
Just hope I dont melt anything ....lol

I only have one square of Clue 4 to finish so I have time this week to try.
