It’s the final countdown… ♪ ♫ This CAL is almost done for the year, just these last 3 blocks and then the joining! So let’s get to it – here’s block #22 in the Moogly Afghan Crochet Along!



Did you find this CAL too late to do it “live”? That’s okay! Theses posts will be here for a long time to come. Here’s the scoop on what’s going on:

No need to sign up/officially join – just jump in and start crocheting! Work at your own pace.

The blocks will stay free online forever. See the schedule below for all the past block links.

I link to the designer’s pattern below, share a photo of my version of their block, and give any helpful notes that are appropriate.

Each 12″ square is designed in worsted/aran weight yarn, with a 5.5mm hook. If you choose a different yarn weight/hook size, your blocks will be a different size, but as long as you are consistent, then the blocks should be too! For example, with DK weight yarn, you should get blocks that are about 10″ in size.

French translation PDFs are provided on each designer’s site, courtesy of Véronique HoRaive! Merci Véronique!

There is a Ravelry group for the CAL HERE, and a Facebook group HERE – all full of help and camaraderie! Thank you to all of the amazing volunteer moderators! It’s a great place to go if you need more help with a particular design!

And here’s the one I made, using all 6 of my colors:

After the square was all put together, it was 11″ for me, so I added one more round of dc around the outside and that got me to 12″. But everyone is different so be sure to measure as you go! Learn more about adjusting for size HERE. Remember that the 12″ is measured across and up and down – not diagonally corner to corner.

I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice, and my color scheme was as follows – Semicircle 1: Rows 1-3 – Rose Mist, Rows 4-6 – Tangerine Mist, Rows 7-9 – Seaspray Mist; Semicircle 2: Rows 1-3 – Tangerine Mist, Rows 4-6 – Seaspray Mist, Rows 7-9 – Denim Mist; Semicircle 3: Rows 1-3 – Seaspray Mist, Rows 4-6 – Denim Mist, Rows 7-9 – Purple Mist; Semicircle 4: Rows 1-3 – Purple Mist, Rows 4-6 – Rose Mist, Rows 7-9 – Tangerine Mist; All Border Rows – Pearl Mist.

If this one isn’t to your taste, you can find a list of alternatives HERE!

Thanks so much for crocheting-along with me!
