    #MooglyCAL2016: Afghan Block #11!

    Published: May 26, 2016 · Modified: Jul 2, 2018 by Tamara Kelly · 7 Comments

    Finishing up the May blocks, we have a mesmerizing geometric square. It's amazing and interesting - perfect for kicking off summer! Here's block #11!

    Get ready for the 2016 Moogly Afghan Crochet-Along! Starts January 7th!


    For those that are new to the Moogly Afghan CALs, here's how it works!

    • No need to sign up/officially join - just jump in and start crocheting! If you come in late, you can start where we are and catch up with missed blocks as we go!
    • A new block crochet pattern will be shared here on Moogly every 2 weeks, on Thursdays at 10am CST (the last one will be one day early due to American Thanksgiving). There is a schedule below, and the links will be added throughout the year. These will stay free online forever.
    • I will link to the designer's pattern below, share a photo of my version of their block, and give any helpful notes that are appropriate.
    • Each 12" square will be designed in worsted/aran weight yarn, with a 5.5mm hook. If you choose a different yarn weight/hook size, your blocks will be a different size, but as long as you are consistent, then the blocks should be too! For example, with DK weight yarn, you should get blocks that are about 10" in size.
    • French translation PDFs will also be provided on each designer's site, courtesy of Véronique HoRaive! Merci Véronique!
    • There is a Ravelry group for the CAL HERE, and a Facebook group HERE - all full of help and camaraderie! Thank you to all of the amazing volunteer moderators!

    Now for my notes!

    • To print this pattern or create a downloadable PDF, go to PrintFriendly.com and enter the URL there.
    • This pattern is fun to make, interesting, and a bit of a challenge until you get the knack of it! Luckily, there is also a photo tutorial linked within the pattern to help if needed!
    • My square was coming out small, so I added two round repeats of the pattern before the edging - that brought me to 12". But everyone is different so be sure to measure as you go! Learn more about adjusting for size HERE. Remember that the 12″ is measured across and up and down – not diagonally corner to corner.
    • I used Lion Brand Vanna's Choice, and my color order was as follows: Rnds 1 and 2: Purple Mist; Rnds 3 and 4: Denim Mist; Rnds 5 and 6: Seaspray Mist; Rnds 7 and 8: Tangerine Mist; Rnds 9 and 10: Rose Mist; Rnds 11 and 12: Tangerine Mist; Rnds 13 and 14: Seaspray Mist; Rnds 15 and 16: Denim Mist; Rnds 17 and 18: Purple Mist; Extra Rnds 19 and 20: Denim Mist; "Note" Rnd: Pearl Mist; Edging: Pearl Mist.
    • If this one isn't to your taste, you can find a  list of alternatives HERE!

    Thanks so much for crocheting-along with me!

      I'm WAY late to the party, but I'd love to join! How much total yarn will I need for this afghan, start to finish? And how many colors would be optimal? (I'm seeing everything from 2 - 6?)
      THANKS!!

        Hi Anna! There isn't an exact yardage available, as some of the blocks are still being designed! But if you go to the link above for Block 1, I do talk about that more in detail.
