Are you getting ready for Rozeta CAL 2019? I can’t believe only 3 weeks left
and we’ll begin!! I better hurry up and crochet faster than I can to finish
progress pictures and helpful tip&tricks for you. If it’s the first time
you hear about Rozeta, please,
check all information about this CAL HERE. And if you would like to purchase official kit with all yarn you need to
make a blanket – it’s just about right time to contact your local stockist or
order online. Because kits will be shipped out tomorrow!!
Rozeta design was inspired by gothic stained glass windows and the magic lights of Aurora Borealis. It was not very tricky to choose the right Scheepjes yarn for this project. It should has been Our Tribe, obviously. With it's fantastic colour changes. I even got a chance to develop a new colourway for Rozeta!
Later Our Tribe kits were translated with Colour Crafter yarn. I tried to keep the same colour palette in both yarns, but of course they look a bit different.

UPDATE: Grab a complete Rozeta pattern in one printable pdf with progress
pictures on
Ravelry HERE
(and
Etsy HERE). Print friendly copy of the complete pattern without pictures is also
available for download.
I’ve been asked a lot about the difference between Our Tribe (OT) and Colour Crafter (CC) kits. Well, first of all it is fiber composition. OT is wool blend yarn and CC is 100% premium acrylic. OT is fingering yarn (so a little bit finer and a smaller hook is needed; as a result, finished OT blanket is smaller).
OT is a variegated yarn. It means it contains several “muted” shades within one skein and they are changing softly. And CC comes in solid colours – that’s the reason why we have more colours in CC kits. Each OT shade is “translated” into two shades of CC, and also CC colours are brighter!
If you would like to learn more details about both yarns, please, check my reviews HERE and HERE.
So, there are two kits available for Rozeta, each in four different colourways: Twilight, Dawn, Dusk and Midnight.
The Luxury Kit contains 11 Balls of Scheepjes Our Tribe (70% Merino Superwash, 30% Polyamide, Sport weight), and the Colour Crafter kit contains 15 balls of Scheepjes Colour Crafter (100% Premium Acrylic, DK weight). The final Our Tribe blanket measures 115 x 145cm / 45 x 57” and the Colour Crafter blanket measures 118 x 148cm / 46.5 x 58.3”.
Aaaaaand, as always, Scheepjes included extra gifts in every kit! YAY! All kits have a Rozeta label, a decorative wooden ornament (which one - it will be a surprise!), a darning needle, and a string of embroidery yarn. The luxury Our Tribe kits also contain an exclusive large bag to carry all your Rozeta yarn goodies (with a logo!).
If you ask me what we will make with extras…. Emmm, you have to wait! :) Let’s keep it a secret for a while. ;-)
The kits will be shipped out tomorrow, on September 18th, 2019. You can find them in local Scheepjes shops and via online retailers. Thank you very much for supporing my work and using my links below to purchase the kit. I might be compensated with a tiny amount while you will not pay anything extra:

Hi! Will you inform on how many balls of yarn of each color for the ones who want to pick out their own color scheme?
ReplyDeleteHello Kajsa, Rozeta CAL is hosted by Scheepjes... I believe they will release this information very soon!
DeleteThe CAL is nearing and there is still no information about the yarn per color necessary! I can't place my order and probably won't be able to begin on time!😱
ReplyDeleteI'll try to check it out...
DeleteLovely! Do you know if there will be any kits at Yarndale?
ReplyDeleteNot sure about the kits to be honest. But blankets should be on a display :)
DeleteAs I was reading this mine arrived! (thanks wool warehouse) Now I know that there is a bag in there, it explains the size of the box ;)
ReplyDeleteI like the dawn and twilight would like to see them close up before I decide. Hopefully Yarndale will have the completed blankets to look at.
ReplyDeleteHi I was hoping you could recommend how many skeins of which colours you'd recommend getting first if we were going to buy the yarn in little bits? I unfortunately can't afford the kit but could do a few skeins a month. I'd be doing the dusk in Our Tribe. Thank you I adore this pattern and the colourways.
