I hardly dare say it, but I love squares more than stripes. And this one is purely amazing!!

[@OpheliaTalks]

Thank you for watching, are you going to make your own legacy blanket then? Anja x

[@luvtocraft]

Princess Layla is so beautiful!!! 😻

[@OpheliaTalks]

Awwww thank you luvtocraft, Anja x

[@robertacaruthers7568]

I love the simple join. It doesn't take away from the beauty of the squares. I am having the best time making these ❤

[@OpheliaTalks]

Wonderful Roberta! So glad you're enjoying it, Anja x

[@rhondalea4450]

So pretty! Like a ginormous rubix cube!

[@OpheliaTalks]

Oh yes Rhonda, I hadn't thought of it like that! Thank you, Anja x

[@poundcake88]

Thank you for inspiring me to use bold colors and using my leftover stash from the Lizzie and Nile blankets.

[@OpheliaTalks]

You're welcome poundcake88, I always strive to make useful tutorials! Thank you, Anja x

[@karenkoutsoumbaris6308]

I’m so loving this blanket, the squares are so much fun, Thankyou Anja ❤

[@OpheliaTalks]

Hi Karen, that's great, I'm glad you're enjoying your crochet, Anja x

[@ferozabhikoo3437]

Wow! Anja, not what I expected but its a lovely simple join❤

[@OpheliaTalks]

Sometimes things just need to be kept simple, it's just as effective! Thank you Feroza, Anja x

[@josephbaumann292]

Love your idea of pinning the squares to a sheet to keep them on order.

[@OpheliaTalks]

Hi Joseph, it's the only way l could think of doing it, easily! Thank you, Anja x

[@hc9661]

It looks fabulous. Can't wait to see the border tutorial. I struggle with borders

[@OpheliaTalks]

Coming soon hc9661! It's a very basic border, but so effective, enjoy and thank you, Anja x

[@TerryAnne77]

Love making these squares and am putting them in a box that I intend to decorate like your grandmother's! Lovely idea! Thank you Anja!❤❤

[@OpheliaTalks]

That's wonderful Terry, l hope you enjoy the process, thank you, Anja x

[@victorialove9104]

I love the simplicity of the join. I sometimes shy away from patterns because I think the join will be difficult or tedious. This is simple and looks lovely especially using a color of yarn not found in the squares themselves. I love the portability of this project. With my "kit" of yarn, hook, and scissors I've been able to take advantage of those times we are forced to be somewhere waiting. Just yesterday I spent 4 hours waiting for car maintenance at the dealers. Spent most of the time sitting in a comfortable chair making Anna squares and drinking tea. Instead of being bored and frustrated and working myself into a fruitless dither I remained calm and Anna-ed on. 😀 good for mental health. Thank you Anja.❤

[@OpheliaTalks]

Well done Victoria, this is exactly what l was hoping this would be used for, l'm so pleased it came to you at a time when you needed it the most, thank you, Anja x

[@patriciamorales8565]

Hello, I completed the Agatha shawl today. However in between that time, I also completed 22 squares for my Legacy blanket. Thank you for sharing!

[@OpheliaTalks]

Great job Patricia, you have been a busy bee! Thank you, Anja x

[@daricafaranov5922]

The color are soo beautiful!!!! it's so simple and so pretty blanket but Layla is a queen of the day! Thanks Anja ❤🧡💚

[@OpheliaTalks]

Thank you Darica, Layla has to get into everything, if she can! Anja x

[@julbea738]

Looks fabulous still my favourite block and blanket, the simplest always turn out the best I think. Sometimes we overthink things love love love it.🥰🥰🥰🥰💯💯💯💯

[@OpheliaTalks]

I completely agree with you julbea738, keep it simply sweet is my motto KISS! Thank you, Anja x

[@lanawolf5681]

I love this blanket with the added ‘stars’ as shown in the opening credits. Can you show how to add those please. Thank you.

[@OpheliaTalks]

Of course, kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJfTc2yFhrqJrZosi=3DWwUligxkjQCNIB. Thanks for watching, Anja x

[@karentzn]

Anja thank you. I’m so excited to start joining some of my squares. I’m planned on 90.

[@OpheliaTalks]

Have fun Karen! But be careful on joining too many at a time, for colour placement, you don't want to have to unrip them all!!!! Thanks, Anja x

[@karentzn]

@@OpheliaTalks appreciate that comment

[@helenoreillylong9497]

I love that you can chose which will be the right side/wrong side. Personally I quite like the flatter side of the join.

[@OpheliaTalks]

That's everyone's privilege Helen, the choice is entirely yours, thank you, Anja x

[@ingemountain4054]

Thank you Anja!

[@OpheliaTalks]

Thank you Inge, you're very welcome, Anja x

[@pennyspearing2731]

A lovely idea laying all the squares out in the park and I was wondering if any passer-by watched you? It’s nice to have the boxes to look forward to for joining as I find this the simplest way for joining.

[@OpheliaTalks]

I had a couple of people stop and watch with curiosity Penny, it was nice. Thank you, Anja x

[@marciagross4985]

Beautiful blanket, Anja. Well done! ❤

[@OpheliaTalks]

Thank you Marcia, Happy Holidays, Anja x

[@maries9416]

I'm so enjoying making these squares, 11 so far, in between my other project, and so easy to remember as per Anja tutorial. As for the joining it couldn't have been simpler. Thank you Anja.x

[@OpheliaTalks]

Great Marie, well done, keep going! Thank you, Anja x

[@annanewsom4253]

I just love this pattern!! Thank you so much for sharing her pattern with us!! Very special!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@OpheliaTalks]

Hi Anna, you're most welcome, glad you like it, thank you, Anja x

[@barbarapetronio9419]

I really love make the squares! This November is so relaxing with working on my legacy blanket

[@OpheliaTalks]

Wonderful Barbara, l'm so pleased! Thank you, Anja x

[@pinkys_pinkies]

So lovely! I prefer the single crochet row as my “right” side. So I am planning mine with that in mind. Layla is so snuggly on the blanket! I love the vivid colors in this blanket, that just pop up from the lighter ones. I finished my “ mystery of disappearing blanket” on Nov 4, and I have managed two Anna squares everyday since. I hope you film the decorating of your legacy squares box, as I’m sure we would all love to see it.

[@OpheliaTalks]

Hi Pinky, yes, l too like the raised effect, it frames each square nicely. Congratulations on finishing your Greenway. Thank you, Anja x

[@lillianmedina2194]

I am working on my squares for November and will be excited to be putting them together in December. Love the pattern and can’t wait until it is finished. Thank you Anja for the tutorial! 🥰

[@OpheliaTalks]

Have fun Lillian! Thank you, Anja x

[@mounihoudja3622]

Merci pour le partage, c'est magnifique même le chat approuve et aime cette couverture 🎉❤.

[@OpheliaTalks]

Yes, Layla likes to put her approval on all my projects, well, the bigger ones! Thank you mounihoudja3622, Anja x

[@cathykinsella6729]

Thank you Anja. Another great tutorial ❤❤❤

You’re welcome Cathy, glad you like it, Anja x

[@christinebelletti3249]

Thank you!! 😀

[@denisemmathis2321]

It's beautiful! I'm a relatively new subscriber, although I have seen your videos on KZbin for a while. I'm working on two other projects right now, but I have been following along with this crochet project. I love your tutorials. I've just finished your Reading Shawl a few days ago.

[@OpheliaTalks]

Hello Denise and welcome to my channel, thank you for subscribing. Glad you're enjoying the squares, keep going! Anja x

[@dianesharpe1405]

Love it.

[@OpheliaTalks]

Great, have fun joining Diane, Anja x

[@Brenda-x3n6p]

Working on mine now. Thank you so much. Where do you get the pattern for the material backing. How to do it. Thank you!

[@OpheliaTalks]

@user-ji2ej3de6c, there is no pattern as such, just lay out your work and measure it! Then cut it, with a seam allowance, and off you go. Thank you for watching, Anja x

[@HollyHook718]

Hi Anja, thank you for sharing ! Please can you tell how many Yarn you need for the edging? Thanks 🏵

[@OpheliaTalks]

You’re welcome, well it all depends on how many squares you make for your blanket, if you are making a big blanket I suggest getting more rather than less, I think I used 2 maybe 3 for the join and edge but I really can’t remember. I hope you will enjoy making this, Anja x

[@HollyHook718]

@@OpheliaTalks Thank you Anja :)

[@karenh2890]

I'm catching up on your videos!

[@OpheliaTalks]

Thank you Karen, Anja x

[@lainyjane4581]

would this blanket be too heavy using a #4 weight yarn? i have lots and lots of #4.

[@OpheliaTalks]

It will be heavier, but if that's what you're looking for then go for it Lainy, thank you, Anja x
