I've signed up for the Scheepjes CAL 2014.
This is a mystery crochet blanket CAL and it will start on 3rd October - just in time for the new teaching term! What on earth was I thinking?!? The end date is just before Christmas, on 19th December. It's all pretty terrible timing, but the idea that I'd manage to end up with a new blanket in such a short space of time was too much to resist.
And to be honest, I think it was also the vibrant colours that tempted me - so pretty! You can see them better HERE. The link goes to the kit that Deramores sells for the CAL (yes, it has it's own kit!).
In order to stick with my plan for this year of NO SPENDING on yarn I even planned this one. I sold a number of things that I'd been meaning to sell for ages, and waited until I had the funds together to buy the kit. See how I'm tricking myself into thinking that I haven't actually spent any money on this? See?
I almost convinced myself too!
In any case, there you are - more starteritis. I'd better finish some of these WIPs before the beginning of October now.
Sounds like fun, even better when you have funded it by selling something else. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI'm very very excited about this CAL. I've never taken part in a mystery CAL before so I can't wait!! :)
DeleteGood luck! I've never had the nerve to enter a KAL or CAL, as I had visions of always being behind everyone else. Although I suppose that doesn't matter...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure to be behind everyone else because my yarn isn't even here! It's supposed to start today, so it's not going too well!!
DeleteI signed up for it too. I ordered the yarn and received it last week. Can't wait to start!
ReplyDeleteHi, nice to meet you! It's good to 'know' someone who is also doing the KAL. I'm really looking forward to it, but so far my yarn hasn't arrived, so I'll have some catching up to do once it does!
