One Block A Week CAL: Week 38 May Pole Square

As I mentioned before I joined a CAL and I’m very happy to have finally found some time again to properly participate in it. It was mentioned in the group that this square has two tricky rounds. They’re not difficult, you just need to concentrate (even though I managed to mess something up in a row which shouldn’t have been too tricky, when I would have actually paid attention what I was doing ;)

Lovely Dedri from LookatwhatImade has again made a phototutorial for the tricky bits if you need some help.

So if you haven’t joined the CAL yet it’s still not too late to say hello to the Official CCC Social Group on Facebook, they’ll get you all the info you need and also post the pattern of the week every weekend (and they’re a lovely bunch of girls who help you with all crochet related questions, so even if you don’t want to join the CAL it’s worth joining the group!).
