![]() The series of all video tutorials is now completed. ![]() In the beginning I was miles ahead of you, but as time went by and our mandala grew in size my time seemed to shrink and at the end I even fell a little bit behind. ![]() Video tutorialsĮach week I had a video tutorial for you to show you how to work the stitches. If you prefer, you can also use one of the yarn packs that are available for this CAL in Scheepjes Color Crafter, Scheepjes Stone Washed XL and Scheepjes Merino Soft, available from Wool Warehouse. Inevitably there will be some left-overs from certain colors. It turns out that there is a whopping 4km of yarn in my mandala. I have calculated the yarn amount I used per color and rounded it up to get the number of balls. Both Sunkissed and Cotton 8 come in 50g balls and have a running length of 170m per ball. If your tension is much different to mine you may need more or less yarn than I needed. Please realize that this is an estimate based on my personal tension and style of crochet.

I have done some calculation on how much yarn you need of each color to make a mandala similar to mine. You can find all the details of which colors I used for each round in my color chart. I hadn’t realized that there were that many colors until I counted them. No wonder my mandala is such a color explosion. I ended up using 11 shades of Sunkissed and 8 shades of Cotton 8 that is a very bright total of 19 colors. I had no preset plan for my list of colors or color distribution, I just took it week by week using leftovers from other projects and yarn from my stash. I used Scheepjes Sunkissed and Scheepjes Cotton 8 with a 3mm (D-3) hook to make my mandala. I preferred not to use a kit, but to go my own way like I always do actually.
