It’s week 3 of Around the Bases CAL and this week we are working granny stitches with a slight twist. Nice and relaxing rounds with many options for color variations. Really interested to see what you all come up with!

The video for this week shows exactly how to work these stitches. If you want to go back you can find all the videos on my Around the Bases CAL video page.

I made the double crochets in each round a different color and I kept my single crochets in a base color. But you could also do it the other way around, or even make every round a different color or just skip all of it and make your entire project in one color. So many options to choose from!

For my ATB I am using Scheepjes Linen Soft yarn in the following colors

• round 10 – 630 white
• round 11 – 622 mint green
• round 12 – 630 white
• round 13 – 627 bright green
• round 14 – 630 white
• round 15 – 606 green
• round 16 – 630 white

The result is a colorful pattern in green.

Next week we are going to aim for the stars! Be sure to share your beautiful afgans in the Facebook group CAL – Crochet A Longand/or Ravelry group Around the Bases. We would all love to see your WIP.
