Crochet-Along Clue 5: Spoilers and Photos

[Shandeh]

P.S I just noticed Bernat didn't change their clocks ahead

Yeah, someone sent me a message about that, and I forwarded it to Jen and Kaleigh.
Don't know if they saw it before they left for the weekend, or not.

Time will tell!

Make sure you have Daylight Saving Time selected in your profile. That is what determines the time you see on the forums.

Go Type1Mom! You are correct!

If no one else knows how to do this, here you go:
Click "User Control Panel" at the top of this page.
Next, click "Board Preferences".
Then scroll down the page, and look for "Summer Time/DST is in effect".
(It is under the "My Timezone" section.)
Click "Yes" for Daylight Savings Time.

Thank you for this information, now i'm correct on the time.

I am one away from finishing my clue #5 octagons. I am doing two blankets. I thought I'd try out the KAL but knitting hurts my hands and wrists so I will save them for the CAL . I love all of the colors from Waverly so I had a hard time choosing. One is greens with Birch as the main color and the other is golds/yellows with Classic Navy as the main color. I like how they go together so far. I have to frog and redo the motifs at least once. I crochet pretty tight. Maybe that means I need to relax more . But isn't that what crocheting is for??

Anyway, I am having a blast working on these and Wednesday is my new fave day of the week! Oh, and I have learned to continually check back on the forum as you all give so many wonderful helping hints. And the videos are super helpful. I actually had to redo all of the clue #3 motifs as I discovered I was doing the trb2tog completely wrong! Oh well, I am back on track and will be caught up in the next hour or so!

Take care of those wrists and hands! I have arthritis myself, and have had to learn to try different techniques for knitting and crochet, in order to avoid pain and injury. You will find lots of videos online for all the different options.

Welcome to the forum!

I love everyone's work! I haven't even tried Clue 5 yet.
Is anyone having trouble with it? I will post a video if necessary.

I would go down a hook size before trying yours. My only trouble was it coming out an inch too BIG.

Yay! On to clue 6.

Finally finished Clue 4 after I got Clue 5 finished. Figured I'd share all my colors too.

Good job!

I agree! It looks like something out of a crochet magazine - great job!

By the way, what color did you use for your D squares? It looks like a shade of peach.
