Block #17:
2020 MooglyCAL Square
by Stitch & Hustle
Above is the original, made in 3 colors of With Love. Below is my version, made in my 4 colors of With Love!
The Details
My Notes: This block features spiked stitches - so fun! This is a great square to relax with, in the evening. Just be sure to read the special stitch instructions before you begin! She's also included some special tip info HERE!
Helpful Links and Tutorials: Crochet Abbreviations; Foundation Single Crochet; working into the edge; seamless finishing
Sizing: When making the inner square, I ended up stopping at Row 32 as it was already squared. But then I needed to add a couple extra rounds to the outside. This square is perfectly flexible like that! But remember, everyone's gauge and tension level are different so be sure to measure as you go. Learn how to adjust for size HERE to make sure all your squares are the same size. Remember that the 12″ is measured across and up and down – not diagonally corner to corner.
What I Did: I used a Furls US-J, 6.0 mm hook and Red Heart With Love, and my color scheme was as follows:
Color A: White
Color B: Lilac
Color C: Aubergine
Border: Light Gray
This square benefited from a mild blocking. To block this square, I used the wet blocking method and a Chetnanigans BlocksAll Ultra blocking board and Perfecting Strips.

I wished the MooglyCAL was published a little bit more consecectuively, it's a littlenhard to togle the #s of patterns back and forth to the pinterest site. Do you have a suggestion? Maybe I missed something. Thanks, RCKelly

Hi Roxanne! I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you're looking for? Pinterest sorts things out in their own order, but all the Pins have their block number on the image.
