PART FIVE - CONSOLIDATING WHAT WE'VE LEARNT
This week we won't be learning anything new. Instead we are just working through the sections we already know which will really help you consolidate your knowledge and feel comfortable with the new stitches. There are quite a lot of rows to work in this part but don't panic, first read my tips below and then you can get started.

TIPS FOR WORKING PART FIVE
How to work this Section
This part details the sections you need to repeat for the second half of the blanket, along with the colours you need to use this time around. You'll need to refer back to each relevant section for the written instructions (and photos) and use this week's part to tell you the correct colours to work.
Pace Yourself
The most important tip this week is to not focus on the amount to do, but on each manageable chunk. Just take it a section at a time. We have made half our blankets so far and this latest part will give you the information to make the second half.
So, the first thing to remember is that there are still three whole weeks of the CAL left. If you made the first half of your blanket in this time so far and you know you can do the same again.
You'll be working the sections you already know, so they will at least be familiar to you, which means you'll be quicker this time around.
Most importantly, aim to work this section over this week and next week.
That will leave you with just the final section for the last week.
