[@TheCrochetCrowd]

Free pattern: thecrochetcrowd.com/the-study-of-ombre-crochet-afghan/ I have some colouring tips that were decided during the design process of my afghan. I am using the Study of the Journey Afghan to showcase the trial periods of design when showing you what I am looking for. thecrochetcrowd.com/christmas-stitch-along-study-of-the-journey/

I love the 'new Mikey' lately and the way you are actually 'being you!' and we get to see the silly Mikey instead of the 'Business Mikey'....does that make sense? Of course it did! Now you 'better Wuuuurrrrk!' Happy PRIDE ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Month! Richard

I've been on KZbin since 2008 and in the early years, it was not free to be me without personal threats and more. I have been finally letting myself relax a bit. I prefer this type of video but the comments that come in sometimes slam me back into the box and I have to grow a pair and just stand up for myself.

[@donnaroach73]

This afghan is gorgeous Michael. Thank you! And …. I love that yarn!

[@evajawidzik2562]

Love listening to you should explain the process. I should come to your page when I'm having a rough day. You make my day better thank you.

[@a.george8982]

This tip was one of the most useful that I've learnt in my crochet journey and is something i keep in mind ever since the Study of Planet Earth Afghan.

Mikey you are such a fantastic teacher and I LOVE your sense of humor and your contagious laugh. I’ve been following you right from the start years ago. Thanks to you I have made so many beautiful crochet projects and before following you I didn’t know how to crochet. When my Mum got sick - being able to crochet gave me the peace I needed to help her through her sickness and helped me when she passed. Thank you for all that you do.

[@Renaystar]

You’re so hilarious 🤣 can’t wait to start, at this point I love looking forward to your stitch alongs 🤗

[@mariamorley8812]

I've been watching your videos for years...it feels like...first time long time...lol.....you are an awesome crochet and knitter... love love your work...you go Mikey 🧶

[@mariawhitehorse9535]

You are always on top of things. TYVM ☺️

[@sharakirkby2744]

You’re absolutely right with we’re the eye falls. I paint in acrylics and oil and I get what you’re saying. Life is interesting but jolts aren’t. Same applies to colour patterns.

[@nenaalto8570]

Dude, you crack me up! I just love watching you. You keep doing you. Don't worry about those haters out there; you keep doing you!

[@kristypaynter4409]

Thanks Mikey! I needed that laugh and knowledge today. Too funny. Can't wait to get started.

[@sherylhutton138]

You are so hilarious! I'm glad to see someone so interested in what they are doing.

[@winpapes3120]

I really adore you. Love your sense of humor.

[@maryreneejohnson2590]

You always make me smile. You are a great teacher

[@samplerworker6803]

Your tip about the color sequencing in the Ombre Yarn was very useful to me in another project I'm working on. I'm stitching a baby blanket and I needed to start a new ball about 2/3rds of the way through. The new ball started with the lightest color but I was working with the darkest. I remembered your tip an pulled out the center of the skein so I could continue with the proper sequencing and didn't have the abrupt change in color. Thanks.

[@machelleowens5403]

You are a RIOT! Thanks for these tips. Can't wait for tomorrow!

[@naomiacaprio4164]

Thank you Mikey, love your laugh!

[@MrsSoapPeddlersHomestead]

Mikey, you amaze me!

[@nancyhildreth8582]

Thanks Mikey for this wonderful information. Love your wealth of knowledge.

[@bethsmart8594]

I’m so excited to start this! I bought my red heart ombré yarn. Some of the colors were not available but I was able to find a similar color of red heart ombre. This time I actually did a swatch for a gauge check so you know I’m serious in finishing this one. This one will NOT get frogged and turned into something else nor will it go into the black hole of my closet where my other WIPs are. Lol

[@stealthwarrior5768]

Just LOVE this yarn♡

[@lauraharper7441]

Excited to get started ☺️

[@cathymcreynolds6412]

I love 💕 the afghans you shared today. I like the Red ❤️ super saver ombre yarn. I'm trying to get my nerve up to try this afghan.

[@marliceyork5867]

You're cracking me up today, Mikey!! 💜💜💜

[@cherylhuger8447]

Thank you Mikey. So informative as well as getting me so excited for your SAL to begin. I have my yarn and am looking forward to your gage tutorial. I have watched several of your old gage tutorials in preparation

[@gaylescovel7308]

Im ready to learn this coloring technique, finally!! Been a long time coming for me. I have a special project in mind for a gift in the next 18 months. Color co-ordination is going to be important on this one. 😧

[@terrydean7004]

Thanks for your knowledge. Love your energy.

[@jessicawalker6899]

Great tips! I'm excited!! Haven't crocheted since December when I was finishing up some Xmas gifts!

[@markkirby8010]

[@ramseysachs5726]

You are just too funny ! I LOVE your videos! Just wish I could do them with you! 😁😁😁😁😁

[@lindabrown2170]

Thankyou for the great information.

[@jeannestout8770]

Went to three different places to find ombré yarn without luck. So bought some ombré, some solid but they all go together. Will learn from his stitches, if not able to use all ombré!!

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

Elusive yarn eh! I'm sorry it's not readily available. If it brings you any confort, it's not sold here in Canada and I order online.

[@bfvargas8]

Thanks 👍 ❤️ ✋

[@CreationsbyJax]

I just laughed sooooooo hard.. eyes… up here!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Grandma_CC]

I love Red Heart Ombre. ❤

[@mirakles1albini]

Hola me gusta como transmites tus videos tu gracia, y sobre todo la forma en que das las explicaciones de los patrones, Gracias muchas bendiciones.

[@jl7034]

Can I adopt you? Either that or we need to start hanging out. Your personality makes me smile every time I see you!

[@independence_yarn_crafts]

Awesome info. Thank you very much.

[@sanflo2810]

Thx for the tips. I would not notice start in yarn are different

[@mariakristinahawl1640]

My eyes still didn't follow to where your eyes were. (Too many of us were drooling over the yarns)!

[@mabellee424]

BEAUTIFUL works. You knit and crochet so many stuffs. 🧐 🤔 what do you do with them , like to know. 🙏 share them with us .

[@sharonellis1251]

😂😂😂😂That was definitely a "Gotcha" I wasn't looking at your eyes🤣🤣

[@lessons9745]

Too Funny! And I care about color!

[@wandataylor6266]

I’m glad you address this because I was thinking about that and wondering if it would be nice to have 3 skeins of the two longer colors as they transition out longer. I believe I’ll have to switch to other colors because I can’t find anything but sunny. I really,really wanted that seaside and blue but can’t find them. Can you give us besides the 2 color waves that would ombré pretty together??? I’m sure they would pretty much all work together beautiful but since I’m a visual person I just can’t decide 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️ That light blue and pink I’ve never found but it may be exclusive to yarnspiration. I thought about coral, cocoa and, ?? I just don’t know as I love them all but the seaside has 3 colors. Yellow and blue and minty

[@elizabethstocks4964]

Hi Mikey is the yarn you use dk or Aran I live in England and can find supersaver ombre 💕 💕 your tutorials

[@debbiejohnson952]

Hi I bought the same colorway you have used.I have pulled out a great big big skein out..how can I figure out how to put the ends together. THANKS MIKEY. MS DEE

[@nanasbabies58]

When will the summer crochet along begin? Will we have the time to purchase our yarn? Looking forward to this, it will be my first.

[@judithsammon5901]

I just want to make an easy pattern that I already know, and my grandson want ombre so how do you connect the new ball to keep the ombre shade going to the end

[@ib4658]

Hey Mikey what is craft cotton and can it be used for summer wearables? Thanks! Such fun videos 😁

[@maryrosemitchell2528]

Hi Mikey. I just signed up for the weekly patterns. I happen to have 3 sea corals and 3 green apples. Would this still work 7 okay in the two colours and would the yardage still work out for colour controling ? Thanks in advance. 😊

[@amandah4834]

Hi mikey will this blanket work if you don’t use this particular yarn ? I have yarn in my stash I would like to use up but it’s not ombré 🤷‍♀️thank you 😊amanda xx💕💖

[@carlaseikel8254]

I am having a hard time finding the Light Blue. Do you think the True Blue will look okay?

[@keishajackson4054]

How did you know I kept looking at the yarn!?!?!! LOL

[@justmecarlab]

I think it's odd that you call skeins balls? But I guess saying balls is more fun 😆 Thanks for the video

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

In Canada, we don't call yarn Skeins generally speaking. That's more of a USA and other country thing.

[@justmecarlab]

@@TheCrochetCrowd I had no idea! Thank you for replying that's interesting

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

@@justmecarlab yeah it’s a neat topic.
