Notes

15-06-2015: Finished the week motifs. Mine are 11 cm after blocking, because of the yarn I use. Hope I’ll have enough.

13-06-2015: Pro tip: same weight+same yardage does not equal similar yarn. Especially when the materials are so different. Had to go to a 5 mm hook and it still looks denser than the others.

I unfortunately don’t have the money to order the new fancy yarn package, so I substituted with Scheepjes Roma. I tried to recreate the Peacock option, in much cheaper acrylic yarn in the colors shown in the project photo. I also replaced the creamy white color with black, because white clashes with my skintone.

Just ordered the yarn for about 20 euro and can’t wait to get started!

Really excited to start my first CAL :)

I made an unofficial Ravelry group for this CAL :)
