2012 BAMCAL, crochet

July BAMCAL squares

The more I see the pile of squares grow, the more I love this blanket.  I’m so pleased with the colours that I chose to work with (although when I go and take a look at the colours that other BAMCALers are using I often want to steal their combinations as well).  The July square is called Eyelet Lace.

A very effective, almost solid square. And easy – which is always good when crocheting while watching tv. The July filler square is Eight Pointed Flower, another free Ravelry download.

I rather wish that I’d crocheted the petals in a stronger colour – there is not enough contrast between them and the background colour for my liking. Otherwise, I’m happy enough with this one too!

As always, crocheted in Bendigo Woollen Mills Classic 8 ply, with a 4.5 mm hook.
