I applaud all those that have mastered this yarn! 🎉 well done 👍

[@patriciasnowden1518]

I figured out how to do it my way and it works for me. I taught myself to crochet. I love the new All in one yarn.

[@McKaylaRognstad]

OK, I have tried and tried and tried all of the videos out there. THIS VIDEO helped me make my first granny square! 🎉Definitely recommended!

[@Nekozettt]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!! I've been crocheting for about a year now and I tried to follow the written instructions without a video at it was a mess LOL but your guide was super easy to follow and understand!! I also loved the extra tips for cheesing the last round

[@Tielles-tb4vc]

It works just fine for me with a 5mm hook and these tips really helped too. These are things the label doesnt tell you or explain. Thanks Mikey! I love my squares so far. I'm using "Shadow" colorway. Thanks Mikey.

[@ChelleShellCrochet]

Great to see an update video from you! The ball band is showing 5.5mm. I successfully use both a 6.5mm & and 7mm depending on how I’m feeling. I am also using my regular granny pattern so I’m loving the yarn! 🎉🧶💜😁

[@CPatricia-kp5wv]

Thank you for the help! I finally caught on, and I love the way my granny squares are turning out. Red Heart has been around forever but it is really one of the best yarns aroung.

[@GroovyDayBaby]

Thanks for the great video, Mikey. I think it is amazing that Red Heart has come out with these great color combinations and made it easy for others to make granny squares effortlessly.

[@ladaveny1]

This tutorial was very helpful. I watched so many reviews I decided I had to try it myself. Since I have plenty of other yarn and projects I’m working on, I have no reason that this has to work perfectly. That said, it took me a few try’s and some hook changes mid square to complete my first one. It is kind of like playing solitaire on my iPad. If I overshoot or undershoot the row, I just adjust and redo it. I got it each row to work eventually and it was kind of fun! Michael is a great tutor and with the right attitude, I think this yarn is great! Thank you!

[@donnaroach73]

A 4.5mm hook works perfectly for me as well. Love this yarn!

[@conniealman3237]

Thank you for sharing this video!! On the ball band that I was following you chained 1, not 3. By changing to 3 single crochet between, it made a world of difference. Thank you, thank you!!🤓

[@if2069]

Bought the yarn and I'm looking forward to trying it. I am usually a knitter, but I crochet too. I'm thinking I'll measure how long each strand of color is and then after many attemps at it, and probably frogging a lot, I'll be able to figure out where I should be on the measurement of each corner of the square to stay in pattern. This way I can catch any inconsistent crocheting corner to corner. Thank you for the excellent video. I subscribed! 🧶

[@devorabaronofsky6318]

I think that with all the tension manipulation the squares will warp. In the long run it may take less time to weave in ends.

[@Userhandleidk]

@@devorabaronofsky6318 that’s an excellent point

[@shawnastoff104]

I love this yarn I ha e made several blankets already took some work in the beginning getting my tension right

[@allreddesign]

Loved this tutorial!!! Thanks for helping me not lose my mind not hitting the transitions!! ❤

[@Glittersp]

Love your tips, I had given up but I may try it again since I still have a few skeins left. Thank you. ♥️

[@brittyboo1967]

I want to say thank u for this video and pattern. I was having trouble and since following your tips and tricks I'm just flowing through. I'm on my 7th granny square. Once I found my flow it works really well. Thanks so much ❤

[@melaniegonzalez9805]

Beautiful tutorial! Very well explained and easy to fallow! Thank you 🧶

[@karenherndon8941]

Thanks such Mikey, 😊❤your instructions are better than a couple others I watched . I havebto use a 4.5 hook also, I do crochet loose. But I learned Iots about getting the colors to come out right. , thx Excellent 😊 ❤

[@katanaatakka4554]

This video was so helpful! I found out that I’m a tight crocheter haha

[@norasutherlin1115]

had to pause from laughing.. hi this is my 1st watching your channel and you have gain a sub just for the loose joke 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@vickie9879]

Thank you for this wonderful video. I am late but I am getting ready to start this new yarn hack🎉. Loving it!!!😍

[@rory2393]

I thought my tension was super tight before I used this yarn. Even with a 4.25 hook and tight tension, I run over to the second color right before the slip knot at the end of round 1!

[@ladyangelheart25]

Thanks for the tutorial! I'm just learning how to crochet, and I have this colorway too. My first attempt is a circle, now though my squares are pretty consistent. It's nice for me at my level, granny squares seemed intimidating. I am still working on a nice ending to the square though...

[@Blinkybill2024]

It’s a cute idea but when I do granny squares it’s because it’s easy and I don’t want to think about the project. This is very tedious.

[@snospmoht3252]

To each their own... weaving in a gazillion ends is a much more tedious requirement to many of us to be honest.

[@beckyblake9253]

I hate tying off and weaving with a passion!

[@allreddesign]

I do granny squares all the time and this yarn is so fun…once you get the tension right they flow so fast!!!

[@Cadets93-ny7nt]

Exactly like I don’t really care how long the yarn tail is, I just want to learn how to correctly use this yarn

[@tspears53]

Great video! Thanks for your effort and tips!

[@cindycampbell4994]

Great video! Love the color

[@hbogielski]

If I have too much of the color left over, do I need to use a bigger hook? I started with the 5.5 and I have about 6-8 inches left over on the first color. TIA

[@dawnjanz]

This is stressful. Yarn chicken every row

[@-zinc-xx]

Fr I got this yarn and it’s so stressful but it’s worth it bc you don’t have to sew in the ends

[@karinaramirez61210]

🤣🤣🤪

[@sandyvanhooydonk7]

I've made this pattern using my scrap yarn. I think for me I need to take my time with that yarn .

[@brittanykrieger5828]

I will make granny squares but not with the yarn shown. This is a great idea for coasters.

[@brittanywillmore9813]

..”We’ll just keep that between us friends” 😂😂❤❤ I needed a laugh just now. Thanks, Mikey! And, of course, for all the crochet 🧶 ❤

[@sally-annebrown1298]

If i had a dollar for the amount of times ive screamed 4.5 mm at those who tried and failed with the yarn transistions, id be able to buy my own and have fun! Seriously though Mikey, this is absolutely fantastic advice

[@AllisonKelley-d3y]

6mm works perfect for me

[@hangingwithnae]

THANK YOU!!!

[@elaineyakatan2310]

Thanks Mikey. The big thing I missed is that u cut 4” off each time!!!

[@jessicawalker6899]

So when we want to join all the squares together, did red heart make complimentary yarn in solids to be able to do that? Or are people joining their squares using the granny square yarn?

[@Pheebs77]

This is a cool idea but would turn me into an OCD monster probably :D trying to get the transitions accurate, arghhh! :D

[@adambathon]

I got it on the first try! Not difficult at all I think.

[@janehodge563]

I had to use a size J hook with loose tension to get it to work. It worked for a few rows then didn't work even though I had tight tension. What am I doing wrong?

[@katydidiy]

Haha! I'm a little loose too❤

[@jenniferfatzinger7714]

I had to make my tension tight in order to make the color change even with a 4.5mm crochet hook.

[@bfvargas8]

👍thanks

[@rohill1335]

i kind of want to get this to test my tension against what red heart expects it to be, but i cannot with the red heart texture (autism, not snobbery 🤭)

[@LisaT_]

You can wash it first just put in a hosiery bag. I’ve seen others do that. Softens up nicely. 😊

[@rohill1335]

@@LisaT_ oh, thank you for the suggestion! unfortunately it’s the texture of the fibers rubbing against each other that doesn’t work for me. it’s like nails on a chalkboard. i do hope this idea catches on, tho, because maybe someone else will make their own version

[@maryrivera4839]

will that same color sequence show up if you use the yarn for the solid granny squares? your thoughts on this please. i was considering trying it.

[@marymarks1784]

Off I go again will try my husband heard the scream with his hearing aids out

[@dlb9596]

How many granny squares do you get out of the one spool? Wonderful video Mikey! I think I will give this a try for my next project!!

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

Approximately 14.

[@swapnajoseph1813]

Red Heart Pansy Throw- Mikey please could you help me on that one

[@marilynmckenzie2111]

I noticed the last two colours had bits of the last colour mixing in with the next colour . doesn’t look nice at the beginning of the next row. 🤔🧑🏻‍🦰🇨🇦

[@tinastalion6266]

Hey Mikey.……Crochet Hook recommended is 5.5m on all the Labels that I have purchased…..NOT 5.0m “H” hook. I love this yarn…..I have made 4 skeins of granny squares which one skein makes 15 squares…..label saids 14 squares.

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

You get a bonus square. Awesome.

[@ShannonandKimberley]

Challenge accepted! 12:00

[@ellenlowery6497]

I have to I use a H Hook

[@Busystill]

Four chain should have been made with white piece that you cut off

[@WhiteBirdMustFly2]

5 mm is for Knitting 5.5 is for Hooks According to all of my skeins, NOT 5 for Crochet, Mikey…

[@Ghostiiiiiiiiiiiii]

I’m trying the 5.5 hook and still having extra yarn. 😭🫠🧶
