I wanted to work on my #wildshoreBlanketCal but it gave me a 418 error

@BipolarBear sort of, I usually do it at the end of every day, to give myself less chance to lose either my hook or my needle

Week 2, batch 1, ATTENTION!

(Shuffling sounds and giggles in the background)

Ah, here they are #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

@venite Do you perceive the woolen version as slightly more muted than the acrylic, or is that just photo/screen variation?

@pointysticksncoffee the colours are almost identical but it reflects the light differently. I wouldn’t call the acrylic shiny at all, but it does give off more light in a way.

Today’s ends woven in and snipped off. And the butt of world famous fiberarts model @archibald!

@venite@wandering.shop @venite@mastodon.nl Such a pretty colour palette

@GinevraCat yes, the designer is brilliant with colour

Today’s colours. What I love most about the attic24 stripe blankets is that the colours (15 of them in total) keep coming up in different combinations. It automatically becomes a colour study, showing it from every side. That’s why crocheting the same stripe 135 times doesn’t get boring.

I wouldn’t mind knitting a sweater with this mini palette!

There’s not really a reason to do the crochet-along entirely during the “official” time, besides keeping momentum (which I do think is helpful for me personally). I just like having this as my focus and I really enjoy the process. Five more stripes done. #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

I would call today’s palette “my bedroom when I was 11” #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

And today’s ends. I found this neat design board to plan colourwork, isn’t it great? #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

@venite he’s incredible. And unbelievable

The final palette of week two of this crochet-a-long is the same as friday’s, just inverted. They were being pretty smug about it in the basket last night, but I bet the others will get their chance to double up in the coming weeks. #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

Yeow that is a lot of color planning! Looks good!

@FallsMom yes, the designer shared that it takes her weeks or longer to create the design, and you definitely notice while making it

That’s week 2 finished. We moved out of “is this a strangely short scarf?” and are now in “is this a strangely short stole/shawl?” territory. Wondering how much it will stretch because I have 41 cm of height now. #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

Week 2! Almost too big for its basket. #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

@venite Wauw! Wat gaat dat snel

It’s Friday! That means twenty new colours for our crochet-a-long! Today is for blue, purples and what the yarn manufacturer calls “oatmeal”, although my oatmeal has never had that colour. #crochet #wildshoreBlanketCal

@venite Hij wordt wel echt heel mooi! 🧶
