Giving up on the CAL 2014

Not all my projects end up as successes, in this post I'll explain why I put a stop to this one. Not that it all is lost, no way, I have enough ideas for this yarn, it's just that I don't feel comfortable with this multicoloured blanket it is turning into, maybe I started out with too many colours.
Maybe I have crafted all my live, but it turned into this intense frenzy only about a year or so ago when I bought my first yarn online and that was a lucy packet. All this amazing colours, I couldn't believe my eyes!
But, eventually it turned out not to be my thing.  It looks great in a ripple blanket or such, but this blocks .... I don't like. I can't imagine this technicoloured bomb anywhere in my house or anywhere! I started out with too many colours. In the first block I used 13 colours!
So far I'm really, really strugling with the colours. With so many different blocks, it will look better with much less colours, at the most 5.

Week 2 Popcorn parade

Week 3 Starburst flower

Week 4 Basket of berries

What a strange stitch at the outer rim, positive thing about this, it made me realise I do understand and I can crochet these difficult stitches.

Week 5 Starfire

Week 6 Blooming lace (actually I like the way the colours came together in this block, it almost looks like I start grasping colour combinations, but this is where I stopped my blanket. I won't frog it yet)
