Good morning hookers! I am so glad you stopped by to meet Melvin the Moose, the star of the Wanderlust CAL Week 14 release. Isn’t he a cutie? I would say my favorite releases so far are the Happy S’more and Melvin the Moose… they make my heart happy. What about you, which are your favorite releases?
Next week, Friday, August 3rd; will be the last release for the Wanderlust CAL. Then the following week, I will do one last post discussing stitching the pieces together and border options that I have found to be very fitting for this project. Be sure to share any suggestions down below in the comment section!
Just Discovered the Wanderlust CAL
If you are just discovering the Wanderlust CAL and would like to create this blanket of awesomeness, hop over to the original post for the details and check out the Wanderlust CAL week 1 – The Happy S’more here. Though the CAL will be over, I promise you won’t regret getting in on the fun and you can still join the Facebook group!
Keep in mind, the Wanderlust CAL can be personalized. You can decide to do each release and have a large blanket to snuggle under or you can just do some of the releases and make a lap blanket, baby blanket, or pillows! You can also personalize each release with whatever colors suit your style… really, the possibilities are endless with this CAL. I will be providing the colors I chose to use on my squares, but again, feel free to get creative and share!
Supplies Needed:
- Red Heart Yarn– Medium Weight (4)
- I would suggest going through your stash of yarn that you have already used for the Wanderlust CAL. Use up what you can, so you don’t have a lot of left over from the project and you don’t have to buy more.
- Hook Size: G or H (I opted for H)
- Yarn Clips
- Scissors
- Yarning Needle
- Melvin the Moose
Stitch Options
- Bobble (I am using the Bobble stitch for the Wanderlust CAL)
- C2C
- Mini C2C
I have a private Facebook group (Wanderlust CAL) for everyone that would like to participate in the Wanderlust CAL. So far it has been a blast seeing everyone’s progress and creativity. Plus, its a great place to ask questions about the Wanderlust CAL. I will also share my progress each week on my squares… theres nothing better than sharing a completed piece of a larger project.
