    #MooglyCAL2016: Afghan Block #12!

    Published: Jun 9, 2016 by Tamara Kelly · 1 Comment

    As if we all needed yet more evidence that time flies... this is the last block of the first half of this year's CAL! Wow!! Welcome to the post for Block #12!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!

    Block #12 in the 2016 Moogly Afghan CAL! Thank you to Pattern Paradise for the gorgeous pattern!

     

    Now for my notes!

    • To print this pattern or create a downloadable PDF, look for the Print Friendly button at the bottom of the pattern post.
    • This pattern is a fun one! Not too tricky, with enough changes to keep your interest. And I love the way the square changes directions!
    • My square was coming out just the tiniest bit small, so I bumped the last round up to dc rather than sc - 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: Rose Mist; Rnd 3: Tangerine Mist; Rnds 4 and 5: Seaspray Mist; Rnd 6: Denim Mist; Rnds 7 and 8: Purple Mist; Rnd 9: Rose Mist; Rnd 10: Tangerine Mist; Rnd 11: Seaspray Mist; Rnd 12: Denim Mist; Rnds 13 and 14: 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!
