Celtic Lace Mini II Join: Official Join for the 2020 VVCAL

Hello, lovely VVCALer! Today I am sharing a joining method that can be used on any blanket, but we are using it for the 2020 VVCAL.

2020 VVCAL: Scheepjes Stone Washed and River Washed 10g Colour Pack Version

Hello, fellow 2020 VVCALer! I decided to create a separate post for each version of the blanket that I am posting each week, that way you can follow along with your particular project and have more details. All 5 pages aren’t quite finished at the time I published this post, but as I finish them, I will link them below. The purpose of this page is to supplement your normal VVCAL routine. So you will still look at the posts weekly to get your square color numbers and patterns, but when we get further along into joining and finishing up the squares, there are differences that are specific to each colorway. For this reason, I thought it would be beneficial to just have a place to look at only your blanket’s general information and photos. PS, affiliate links are marked with an asterisk. Purchasing through them will gain me a small commission at no extra cost to you. Catona 10g Colour Pack Catona “Shy Violet” Colorway Catona “Fresh Earth” Colorway Stone Washed and River Washed …
