CAL – My Favorite Things Afghan
January 7, 2020

New Year – new CAL!
It’s time for my first CAL of the year, and I think you will love it! The theme of this afghan is some of my favorite things. Just to name a few – coffee, books, kitties (and doggies), flowers, and granny squares. 
When I was working on this design, I kept hearing Julie Andrews singing in my ear, so she became my muse. This was such a happy, fun project.

This design will be presented as a CAL in Six Parts, each Part reflecting some of my favorite things. Note – there is a pattern option for cats or dogs.

Every other Friday a new Part will be published, and you will receive an automatic notification. You will have 2 weeks to complete each Part, however, there will be ample time to catch up if needed. Some Parts are fast and easy, others are more time consuming.
This design incorporates several different techniques such as tapestry crochet, surface crochet, carrying colors, embroidery and applique. It will most definitely keep your interest, and you will be most proud of your completed project.

The Placeholder file contains Tutorial Links, explanations of Techniques, and yarn specifics. 

CAL SCHEDULE
PART ONE – Jan 31 – Feb 14 (2 weeks)
PART TWO – Feb 14 – Feb 28 (2 weeks)
PART THREE – Feb 28 – Mar 13 (2 weeks)
PART FOUR – Mar 13 – Mar 27 (2 weeks)
PART FIVE – Mar 27 – Apr 10 (2 weeks)
PART SIX – Apr 10 – Apr 24 (2 weeks)
CATCH UP TIME – Apr 30 (CAL officially over)

SKILL LEVEL
Intermediate – Due to various techniques used.

YARN

    Hiya the coupon code favorite in caps doesnt work! Another ? Is each part going to cost money or is the whole cal purchased now and free with coupon code?

  2. Melinda

    I just tested the code and it is working. Make sure to spell correctly and include the hyphen. Just one purchase for the entire CAL, price depends on when you purchase. Free during January.
