Scheepjes Colour Lab CAL: Tips and Tricks Page (UK Terms)

Published by

Hello, lovely Colour Lab CALer! Welcome to the Tips and Tricks page. This page is full of all the information you should know before you begin, and it’s a great place to come if you’re ever stuck during the crochet-along. The official Scheepjes Tips and Tricks PDF is also very handy, and can be found on the Scheepjes website and as a file in the Scheepjes Facebook groups, where the Colour Lab CAL is hosted. Please read through this entire post, as you may have questions that are answered within. Note: If you work out any of these photo tutorials, it is best to use stash remnants, so as not to break into any of your kit yarn just yet. This page has photo tutorials in UK Terms. If you would prefer to see them in US Terms, click here! Related Links As these sites become live, I will hyperlink them.

We have a lot to cover, so grab a cuppa and settle in.

If you’re a member in the Scheepjes Facebook group, or just a Scheepjes Yarns groupie in general, you probably know that they host a huge CAL or KAL every year in the groups. The last three CALs were Ubuntu by Dedri Uys, Rozeta by Tatsiana Kupryianchyk, and d’Histoire Naturelle by Christina Hadderingh. To join the ranks of these talented designers is an honor.
