Scheepjes Perfect Picnic CAL: Pick a spot and pack your basket Created in collaboration with crochet designer Eleonora Tully of Coastal Crochet , the Scheepjes Perfect Picnic CAL invites makers around the world to crochet together over eight inspiring weeks . Inspired by idyllic picnic destinations, each colourway captures the beauty and atmosphere of a different setting. Featuring front and back post stitches, playful bobbles, simple Tunisian crochet and join-as-you-go construction , the blanket offers an enjoyable balance of familiar and new, with plenty of opportunities to build confidence while exploring colour, texture and a variety of techniques. Colour Crafter is a DK weight yarn known for its soft feel, durability and anti-pilling properties, making it an ideal choice for blankets that will be used and loved. For each Colour Crafter version, which measures approx. 135 x 105cm (53 x 41in) blocked, participants will also require 4mm and 4.5mm crochet hooks , or the sizes required to achieve gauge.
