My hook has been crazily swinging, catching and pulling to get this far this quickly.
These 90 or so centers have been done to Round 2! It’s been a giant logic puzzle as well…trying to think up the combinations of colors and setting them up so that they don’t repeat.
I’m really liking the colors! So bright and cheery and fun!
These colors need full sunlight to show them off for the camera. I waited for the clouds to pass…
to set them up … on the grass…

love the colors… what yarn are you using…? i saw this crochet along and am thinking of joining i just cant decide on what colors to use.. like you i have tons of bright colors didnt know what that would turn out like but i like what i see yours is awesome so far
Melissa,
I wrote about the yarn here; https://curiosities808.wordpress.com/2011/09/05/crochet-along-cal-with-inner-hooker-sunburst-granny-squares/
They are Red Heart…chosen mostly for “washabiltiy”. I’d like it to clean up easily without any worries of felting if using wool. I’m glad you like the colors so far. I’d say, for you, pick colors that you have that are ‘talking to you’… maybe some stand out more than others. You can always make one sample through to the 4th round to see which colors you like. Join along! You can post your progress in the comments too. I’d love to see what you come up with.

Great colors!! I decided on bright and cheery too
Jill,
I just went to look at yours. Some of the same bright fun colors! Great start you have too. I’m interested to see how different each one ends up even though they start off a bit similar. 🙂
