Who is more behind than me?

Talk about the KAL/CAL in a general sense. Knitters and crocheters, get to know one another while discussing your choices of Bernat Waverly shades!

I just started Clue 2 and am starting to " feel behind" also, but let's cheer each other on!
A policeman saw a woman driving and knitting and shouted " Pull over!". She answered " No," " It's an afghan for the Bernat Knit Along!" :rofl:

This is a mystery knit along for enjoyment! I do not think we get anything if we finish first. If I am wrong...someone please let me know!

I think I am probably the furthest behind. I was just completed a baby blanket for a gift last night. I had completed only one (1) Clue 1 square and when I measured it, even after doing 2 gauge swatches, I was at 10.5 inches instead of 9.5 inches. So I guess you can say that I am literally back to square one. I frogged the whole square and I am starting again this time with size six needles. I know I saw some one doing something like frogging back half a square and either increased more, but I amd not sure how many stitches to increase to before I start decreasing using the size 7 needles. I figure If by any luck that I am a little under gauge and stay that way throughout, then I should have some kind of blanket at the end.

I have a total of 8 squares completed but no badge earned yet since 5 of them are from week 1 and 3 from week 2. I have gone ahead and started clue 3 becauase I like to work with the new clues and colors. Will just plan to catch up when I can.
Clue 1: 5 of 8 completed, may re-do 2
Clue 2: 3 of 4 completed
Clue 3: 5 of 8 completed, will re-do 1

lol, i'm right there with you. i still haven't even finished clue one (1 left) or two (2 1/2 left)! eight more squares seems like an impossibility right now, but i'm just working through them slow and steady, fingers crossed that it'll get done eventually.

oh, I'm pretty sure we're not in it for an award (except for a cool-semicool afghan at the end). I'm just feeling like I should be keeping up....it's comforting to know that others are having the same struggle and can laugh about it. :thumbsup:

Yeah Jolu, I think that I should be at least a little bit caught up. If it weren't for all of that frogging, then I would be further ahead. Thanks everybody for letting me know that I am not alone. :P

I am also behind. I have 2.5 squares of Clue 1 done, and 1 square of Clue 2 done. Haven't even started on Clue 3.

However, I am focusing on the CAL...I have both Clues 1 and 2 done there, and 1 block done of Clue 3. I should probably go attach those badges to my sig.

Just a tip, You will not have room to attach all weeks clues, So just grab the highest one you have completed and attach that one. We only have so many characters in our signature, maybe only enough to hold 3 weeks worth of badges in total, and with 8 weeks we won't get them all on
I am behind in my KAL. Still have a few squares from 1 to complete and now 7.5 more squares of this clue (3), but I did get Clue 2 finished!

Amen knitting and crocheting is my stress relief not stress creator so I am enjoying the journey. I have completed clue 1 for KAL and CAL, 3 out of 4 KAL clue 2, and 2 out of 6 CAL clue 2. I will continue to work at a pace that is fun, relaxing and stress free. Also I think I remember reading there is a catchup week. So no worries everyone just enjoy the ride. :hug: :hellogoodbye:
