A new video stitch-along, with an early pattern release, is called Granny Goes Random Crochet Blanket. Yes, you can work on this anytime, and no sign-up is required, but the videos will be released as a stitch-along over the Christmas break in 2024.
Yarn for the Stitch Along
.
.
What excites me the most is that you only use two colour balls. One is Sunset Beach (3 balls needed), and the other is Moonbeam (2 balls required). Yes, all of those colours are in just those two colorway balls. This yarn is called Red Heart Bitty Stripes.
The videos will be rolled out on a timed basis to give crocheters time to complete sections.
Picture below is version 1. Tutorial is focused on version 2.

Another fantastic Mikey creation. Love the videos with clear instructions and Mikey's warm voice. Looking forward to working with this beautiful colour way. All the best for 2025

I can not find the tutorial from week 4.

I have added it to the article and is also on YouTube as well.

I'm starting my squares 1/2/2025! The written pattern calls "...work all Squares at same time. With A work 1st and 2nd rnds/rows for each Square (18 Full, 10 Half, 4 Quarter) before continuing with B. With B, work 3rd and 4th rnds/rows for each Square... before continuing with A. Continue working in the manner to complete all Squares..." I get that the tutorial would be lengthy to show all this. Is that why you are working a full Square in the Week 1?
Mikey says
Yes, it's just to showcase the stitch work. Truth for me would be I would make a full square and then move on. I would ignore that type of instruction if you weren't watching me. For simplicity, I filmed it with each motif being in a week.
