The Secret of the Dragonfly Blanket
In the years I have been designing I have carefully skirted around the idea of running a CAL. There is a number of reasons for this!
Firstly it is a lot of work and as the majority of my patterns are of intermediate level, I was unsure as to whether this would attract enough genuine interest.
When I was designing The Secret of the Dragonfly Blanket, it seemed a design very much suited to a CAL. I decided that maybe it to give it a go!
I had this design completed and through testing late last year, but knowing that as it would run over 10 weeks, I felt it would be best to launch this early 2023.
The plans for this got a bit crazy, as life decided to throw a few curve balls and the decision to wait till life calmed down a bit was made.
Life is still slightly crazy but the blanket is ready to go.
The pattern will be launched on Ravelry on the 30th April 2023 for pre-sales. The introduction will be available at this time so yarns can be organised.
Parts will be released via Ravelry on the following dates;
Part 1: 10th May 2023
Part 2: 24th May 2023
Part 3: 31st May 2023
Part 4: 14th June 2023
Part 5: 21st June 2023
Part 6: 28th June 2023
Part 7: 1st July 2023
Part 8: 5th July 2023
Part 9: 12th July2023
Part 10: 19th July 2023
The design features my signature dragonflies in a unique blanket and will come in two sizes. I classify this as an INTERMEDIATE level .
The CAL will be run through my webpage, and Facebook Group. Purchase of the pattern will only be available via Ravelry.
This is a written pattern with photographs, and graphs. I DO NOT offer video tutorials, so please do not ask for these.
This is a PAID CAL. For those who may think that paying for CALS is not for them, this is fine and I fully understand. I will point out that I am not a huge designer and therefore get kick backs from other areas. I paid for the yarns to design this and Ispent hours, upon hours working on the pattern and I am not in a position to do this for free.
A basic break-down of yarn used is below. More information will be available on Ravelry and my main webpage.

I hope you that some will decided to try my CAL and enjoy the process of creating their own Secret of the Dragonflies.
