I've made a bit of progress on my Charlotte's Universe CAL. Last time I posted, I had finished through Row 42, which was the end of Part 4 of the CAL. I have just completed part 6 last night.
I used the Medium "Leaf" Green on Rows 43-46, which was only short rows, as they form the base of the triangle for each side, and used 71g of yarn for those rows.
I then did 2 rows white, 2 rows light green (nearly using that up! - I used 28g and only have a few grams of light green left now)... then another row of Leaf green before finishing the triangles with white. I am hoping that the white isn't too stark a contrast once this is finished, but it may be a good accent point too. Only time will tell.
As each round gets larger it will use more yarn, so I have to be careful on color selection so that I have enough to finish each round before running out of that color of yarn.
I framed these triangles in white - using up a couple of white partial skeins on these triangles and the framing. This will firm up the edges nicely before continuing on. . .
So that is Part 6 completed.
I did start Part 7 last night as well. The first row is the dark purple - and that one round, Round 68, used up 48grams. Hoping it will last for 2 more rounds before going to the next color, which will be Leaf Green, and then a Medium purple for a row of flowers. I should be interesting!
