I went shopping yesterday to celebrate surviving my first working week and scored myself a 10 colour sepia palette!!! … And…. drumm roll… I found them all in one yarn shop, aka the yarn heaven + my favourite hobby shop :D
I couldn’t refrain myself of buying the yarn for the Walking Dead piece…

I made the pattern for this piece and its going to be 412 stitches wide and 687 rows up… :D How’s that for bigness?? Started crocheting with a 1.75 mm crochet hook, works just fine, even though the label says 3 - 3.5 mm hooks haha! Total number of stitches: 283,044!!!!! And we’re off with seven rows!!

I have taken the time to take a snap of all the yarn that will go into this project (probably even more than that) before I crochet it all up XD haha!! Yarn mountain!

27 rows into the pattern… 10 % is 69 rows, so I won’t be working with percentages, the updates would be too far off… Love the way the three chins are showing…bring on three pairs of lips!! XD

11/09 Lips, I welcome thee!! :D You’re starting to see who it’s going to be!! Anyone has a guess?? XD

9/10 Say hello to Carl’s Nose :D Updated just in time for the end of the Walking Dead CAL… I’d wanted to finish the first faces, but as I already have 22,660 stitches so far (not taking my other WIPS into account) I realise it was an impossible deadline :’(

9/01 I can’t believe I finally have the eyes!! Finally the piece is coming to life!! ^-^ Carl’s hat is building up nicely! Can’t wait to finish of the first three faces and start with the next ;P
