Slowly but surely we are making progress on our Mandala; this week we are on part 7 of Mandala Madness CAL designed by Helen Shrimpton? Last week we made bobbles and a mesh to grow the star we already had, this week we start with a floral part of the mandala to slowly change the shape of our mandala. You can find the original, written pattern with many translations on Helen’s blog.

Video Part 7
All videos for Mandala Madness are available through my YouTube channel. In the video for week 7 I show you how to make the ruffled flowers and the bobble decorations.
My Mandala Madness
I use two Scheepjes yarns for my mandala; Scheepjes Sunkissed and Scheepjes Cotton 8 with a 3mm (D-3) hook. There are yarn packs available for this CAL in Scheepjes Color Crafter, Scheepjes Stone Washed XL and Scheepjes Merino Soft, available from Wool Warehouse. Here a list of the colors I used for week 7.
Round | Yarn | Color number | Color name |
round 47 | Sunkissed | 05 | seaside |
round 48 | Sunkissed | 05 | seaside |
round 49 | Cotton 8 | 720 | fuchsia |
round 60 | Sunkissed | 13 | cherry ice |
round 51 | Sunkissed | 04 | poolside |
round 52 | Sunkissed | 04 | poolside |
I hope to see you next week for part 8.
With love,
