Scheepjes Colour Lab CAL
Over 12 weeks, designer and Scheepjes Blogger Rachele Carmona of Cypress Textiles will lead this intriguing CAL and encourage participants to play with colour and create their own unique blanket. This motif-based design also offers a great deal of creative freedom for crocheters feeling adventurous.

Two exclusive kits are available from 8 November 2022: Scheepjes Metropolis, a luxurious Extra Fine Merino Blend, and Scheepjes’ newest yarn Scrumptious, that has recycled plastic bottle content. Both CAL kits include three base shades and a Colour Pack containing all 80 available colours, offering countless exciting options for placement. Kit extras include the Classified Colour Lab booklet, a tapestry needle on a printed card, a Limited Edition Scheepjes Lanyard and an ‘Access All Areas’ pass that unlocks fun extra content, relating to the theme.

Pattern
The Scheepjes Colour Lab CAL features various crochet techniques including join-as-you-go methods and is suitable for all levels of crafter, from adventurous beginners wanting to learn along the way, to advanced crocheters looking for a creative journey that’s exploding with colour possibility.

The CAL will start on 4 January 2023 with the release of Tips & Tricks, tailored to the Colour Lab CAL. On 11 January 2023 the first part of the pattern will be released at 12:00u CET on the Scheepjes website and the Official Scheepjes Facebook Groups. In these Facebook groups, participants will interact with and receive extensive support from the global Scheepjes crafting community, consisting of over 100,000 members, the highly skilled mods and admin, and of course, from the designer herself. English & Dutch language video tutorials for both left- and right-handers will be provided by Esther from It’s All in a Nutshell and will be available via YouTube. Because some motifs require more work than others, some patterns take up a week, others two weeks.
