A Very Canadian Tat-a-long 2022

It's that time of year again! Today marks the first day of the Very Canadian Tat-a-long. This last for three days and will take around 30 minutes to tat each day. 

 Unfortunately there is no diagram this year, I haven't downloaded a program onto my new computer. I was using an older program which is no longer available. 

 Again this year the AVCT will be followed by a 4th of July Tat-a-long that will start on July 2nd and finishe on July 4th. I hope you will check back afterwards because there are a few more patterns that I'm planning on sharing.
