Notes

I was incredibly inspired when I noticed the BAMCAL Afghan that Mellie Blossom made and decided to also start a project using the same colours and squares.

Halfway through I decided that I want my afghan uur to be even bigger, and I included more squares.

24-02-2018

At the end of december 2017 I finished all larger squares 6 inch (9 x 4), 9 inch (12x) and 12 inch (16x). All that remained was making 132 3’’ granny squares! And I just finished those too, which is worth a small party. I will now design how I will put all the squares together and start stiching it up!

I just finished joining all the squares together! Time for a border, I think I’ll just do a simple border of 3 rows of hdc’s.

I found 2 round of hdc’s enought. It’s finally finished! :D 30+ grams of woven in ends; I saved them up during the last years.
