A Quick Catch Up with Janie

​Fruit Garden CAL - Part Eight

​The snow here in North London has made me a little later than usual today but I am sending you a chilly wave from us here and Janie Crow and Just Knots and hoping that you are all keeping safe, well and warm!

It is hard to believe that 14 weeks have passed since we released the first part of the newer version of my Fruit Garden CAL and that those of you working through the design now only have the final part to complete in order to have your own blankets. How exciting!

The eighth yarn substitution document for the Love is Enough version of the Fruit Garden Crochet Along project is now live on the Stylecraft web site. 
 ​

​To work through the next stage of the Acanthus motif you will need to download the original pattern for Part 8 and use the yarn sub document alongside this as a guide for which yarn shades to use. If you are joining in the CAL and using one of the 2 original colourways or your own colour palette then you will not need the yarn sub document.
​

You can find a video to accompany the next stage of the Acanthus motif and the edging in the original colour ways here.
 ​

​If you want to make a cushion to accompany your project you can find the patterns as a free download or as a paper pattern by following this link. 

Don't forget that you can find help and join in some crochet orientated chat via the Stylecraft Yarns CAL Facebook page here. 

​If you are looking for a new project then you might be interested to know that my Indian Roses blanket design has now been released as a stand alone pattern. You can find it by following this link or by clicking on the image above. You can also find 3 free yarn substitution documents for alternative colour ways of the design on my web site.

I look forward to seeing you back here in your inbox on Friday 19th February. Until then I hope you keep safe and well.
