You will get a new part of the pattern every Friday, during 5 more weeks. You only pay once. Each part will be added to your library, every week. See releasing dates below. Until the end of the CAL there is an extra 25% discount for all the members of my Fb crochet group - Oneskeinoflove Crochet. Winter is a special season with magical qualities so it is time to celebrate it. Magic Winter is a relaxing pattern that can be made by all crocheters, with different skills. It uses overlay mosaic crochet and mosaic tapestry techniques. If you are an adventurous crocheter and a patience one you will be fine with the tapestry parts. If you prefer you can do your blanket using only the regular mosaic crochet technique. The blanket is divided into 5 parts. The first 4 parts will create the blanket body. The last part will be dedicated to the border. There are 9 different patterns distributed in the first 4 parts of the CAL. You can play with the patterns or repeats to create a bigger or smaller blankie or to create other house decor itens. All information about materials, size, stitches and pattern notes are in the Introduction File. Also a mosaic tutorial and border tutorial are available in this file. Pattern is written in English (US Terms). It has a Spanish, German, Dutch and French translation, and a left-handed version too. It has step-by-step written instructions, a mosaic tutorial and a border tutorial with photos for every row and steps, charts, and lots of pictures to guide you through all the CAL parts. As my previous mosaic CALs, this pattern is great to help you reduce your yarn stash. Colourful blankets are always gorgeous. Magic Winter CAL is hosted in OneSkeinofLove Crochet group, on Facebook. You are so very welcome to join, share your progress photos or doubts. The group is a a very welcoming and helpful one. Materials In my sample I used a cream yarn (Stylecraft Special DK) and a colourful green Aran yarn (Hobbii Winter Glow). Due to the slight variation in thickness of the green yarn, a 4 mm hook size worked lovely for both types of yarn. You are free to use whatever yarn and hook you want, and all the colours you want. It is all up to you. Finishing Size The final size of the blanket is 98 cm x 124 cm (39” x 49”), approximately. You can customize the size of your blanket by adding or decreasing repeats of the pattern, but keep in mind that this will affect the amount of yarn required. Releasing Dates Each part will be released every Thursday, around 2 o’clock in the afternoon (UK time).
