Here is my WIP for the Mystery Afghan CAL. Clue #3 can be found here.
This week introduced more crochet layers and two different color changes. In the beginning of the week I was really struggling with the design. I think in the end this afghan will really just be for display only. This is fine with me since the design is so detailed and it will be showcased, but I lean more towards function than fashion. By the end of completing this week I started to really warm up to the design. I am confident in my color selections. They emphasize what they are intended to. I am glad they are all the same and I did not alternate colors with same row and different squares. I think that would have made it too busy and the design would have been lost.
Row 7 is very interesting. I am excited to find out of the chain 20 loops come into play!
I still have not woven in my ends so I do not have a picture of all 20 squares together. They would just look like a mess right now!
Here are some more images of Week #3 WIP:
