Charlotte's Universe - Part 14 and final rows.

 Hello !

I have finished this CAL!

Just so you will know, I have completed the CAL over at the Look What I Made website.  You can find the beginning of the CAL at this link.  She has lots of other patterns and CALs as well.  Well worth the trip over there.

I have been working on this CAL since November 2021.  I finished it on Feb 23, 2022.  So it took me just over 3 months.  Not bad, considering it has 7421 yards in it!

Here the stats on the remaining rows... 


Row 122 & 123 - Used some old Sayelle white yarn (worsted weight) - 96.63 grams.

Row124-125 - Red Heart Paddy Green - 120.5 grams

Row 126 - Red Heart Orchid - 82.3 grams

Row 127 - Paddy Green - 91.7 grams

That finished Part 14 of the CAL.  Then, they supplied a few bonus rows, and since I had enough yarn, I went ahead and did them... 

Row 128-130 - Orchid (purple color) - 275.3 grams.

I did one last row, because I felt it would finish off the edge nicely -

Row 131 - Paddy Green - 42 grams (this is a single crochet row, just to give a frame to the blanket).

All in all, it is 4043 grams & 7421 yards (approximately) 


I'm pretty proud of it. It's the largest thing I've crocheted, so I think it's quite an accomplishment.

Please let me know if you have ever done one of "Look What I Made"'s patterns, or if you have finished anything over 7000 yards !

If you convert the grams to pounds, it's almost 9 pounds of yarn.

I used a J hook, and I think if I did it again, I would have went down to an 'I' hook, just because some of the stitches are a bit looser than I would like, but I do like it a lot. Learned new stitch patterns, and have something that is plenty big for my bed!
