I have too many projects atm but will be doing this blanket in between it all. Ta for reminder that I was not drinking coffee. Grabbed a see ya in Hell mug I bought from Dollarstore. Now I have balance again 🙃
This will be my first time actually doing a crochet along. I will be picking up my yarn tomorrow and will be tuning into the lives. My colors are Hufflepuff inspired since that is my Hogwarts house. Can wait. Love your videos.
Woman!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂 I do not need another project! And I’m already making a big blanket! But this sounds like so so so so so so so much fun. And also one square a months sounds sooooo doable!!! Now I have to try! 😂😂😂 listen I absolutely ADORE your channel and you and your tutorials and your enthusiasm for everything spooky. I love scary movies and they are my favorite to watch while I’m crocheting. But apart from that and bright red hair we couldn’t be more different. I NEED to crochet with pastel colors or I’m not happy 😂😂😂 I love all shades of baby pink. I’m like… as colors go… a version of you if you had fallen into a worm hole and ended up in some bizarre alternate reality 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 so I think I’ll have to make your blanket opposite with a nice blush pink instead of the red and a pretty soft grey instead of black. Lol
Feel free to join in at any time and don't think you have to create every square. Literally low key and no commitments for this crochet along! It's all for fun. Having said that, I'd love to see your opposite version of the blanket! Pink and grey explosion sounds killer!
@@AltKnots lol thank you! I def will. I am excited. I’ll have to run to the store this weekend to get the yarn cause I looked through my stash and I don’t actually have much of the colors I have in mind. Sooo excited to start. 😁😁😁😁😁😁
thank you so much you dont know how much you helped me not only from your patterns but your crochet preference as it being ALT i never felt more engaging because it is my passion for a darker aesthetic and yo helped me out because as me being a guy you have helped me see that anyone can crochet thank you for your time keeping crocheting and i cant wait to start on this blanket
I could cry. I just found you and your videos are the easiest for me to follow along. I have crocheted for several years but I only know a few stitches because a lot of crochet videos are hard to follow. Thank you so much.
This sounds like so much fun. I'm not an extremely fast stitcher and have a couple paid requested projects at the moment so, I may be following close behind everyone else. 🖤✌️🧶
Already started my January square 😋 CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH MY FAVORITE CHILDHOOD MOVIE JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH on 1/18. I could cry with excitement seriously
Omg I’ve been keeping a eye out for a crochet along 2023 and this is going to be my go to! Looking forward to gaining some new skills and having a lush blanket at the end
I've been looking for an easy stitch to start my journey of making more than crochet hats. Love the drap of this stitch I think I might try my hand at a cardigan. Thanks so much looking forward to your next post
I dont know if it would be possible, but a cool idea would be a zoom call for the livestream, so everyone could have their cameras on, and make it to where people cant unmute their mics, just cuz that gets hectic. It would be kind of cool to see everyone working on their projects at the same time and what not
I have never seen "James and the Giant Peach". Since I have issues with nightmares, I googled it. Looks like I'll be able to handle this one. I initially was thinking 'Aracnophobia' would be the movie; glad it wasn't. Going to use what ever color my hand grabs out of the yarn stash bag. Who knows what mine will look like. I am super excited!
This is so cool! I’m enjoying working on my Mood Snood but was already wondering what I’d do when January ends! And learning new stitches?! This is perfect!
On the blog she stated 3600 yards however it could be more or less depending on your personal tension and hook size used for example if your tension is tighter than hers you would need less or if your tension is looser than hers you will need more than the stated 3600 yards. You should always get more than you think you need to make sure you have enough since it is always better to have more than need rather than less
Just found you channel a few days ago! I’m bingeing your videos! I just joined your newsletter and I follow your Instagram! So excited to do this, I’ve never participated in a CAL !
I'm completely new to crochet, and I'm so excited to follow along with the stitch and scream videos! Idk if I'll be able to attend the lives, but I'll still watch and try to finish mine!
Oh my goodness! Super Excited! I've been stalking the channel for like a year just ordered my yarn for this project super excited to join the community for the stitch and scream looking forward to seeing everyone's blankets as they come along.
Hi! I’ve loved your channel for a while now and I think I’m finally ready to commit to a crochet along with you! If I want to use the same yarn as you, about how many balls total should I order? I wanna make sure I have enough Edit: also I desperately want to know where you got that awesome yarn bowl from
I just found this channel and this sounds like such an exciting project 💜 I can't afford to buy more yarn right now so I'm going to shop my stash. I have 10 balls each of pink, blue and lilac acrylic aran yarn. Wish I could get red and dark purple but then I'd miss the start of the CAL by the time that fit my budget.
Still excited for the stitch sampler crochet along as I’m going to have a base knowledge for some stitches that I could potentially use to make other projects in my yarny life. I love James and the giant peach movie and I might even make some copies of her spiderness to add even more flair and explanation of the stitch itself for reference later. I know that you are only using two colors but I’m hoping that I can incorporate colors for all the 8 Sabbats of the wheel of the year and bind them together in a cohesive fashion. Also could you please let us know which panels that absolutely need to have two colors used the month before so we all have time to get both yarn skeins ready for the stitch in which they will be needed. I also think the badge images you are giving each month to us will definitely be helpful for keeping our engagement throughout the year.
This Cal looks fun! I love the stickers idea. I cannot access the FB page :( Never seen that movie but I know Jane Leeves and David Hyde Pierce are voices in it. :)
So excited! This will be my first project with you, although been following a while. About to dive into my yarn stash and decide what to use, yay!!... and maybe treat myself to a new hook for this project heheheh
Might actually make it to this live. The lives are 2am my time so I don’t often make it. This one is the same day as my son Is having foot surgery so I’ll be in the hospital with him over night and probably not sleep much.
I've never seen James and the Giant Peach and i'm excited for the stitch-n-scream along! how many yards of yarn are needed for this part of the blanket?
This crochet along sounds like so much fun! And I've never seen James and the Giant Peach! I've never participated in a Stitch and Scream, either, but it sounds great! I have a question, though: how many yards of each of the two colours should we expect to need to complete the project? I like to have all the yarn I'll need before I begin a project. Thanks so much. This is gonna be fun!
Just stumbled onto this and I’m so excited for it! Question: could one of our colors be a striped or variegated color? Cause I have this super fun neon stripes color with bright colors that I’ve been dying to use 💙
Love this! I'm getting my husband involved and had him choose the colors and he picked a vaporwave theme. So fun! Do you know about how much yardage is in each square? Just trying to figure out how much yarn I'll need.
Hey, I'm new on the ghoul squad and I'm totally getting on board with this! Random question but have you seen the new Silly Socks Disco yarn from Hobbii? It's neon colored and glows in the dark and from UV light. It instantly made me think of your creations. Love it!
My friend and I will be making the crochet along and gifting the blankets to each other as hexmas gifts! We're picking the yarn and the colors but I have a question: How many of the 12 squares will need 2 colors? I'm asking because I'm already thinking about placement and how it'll look at the end.
I'm pretty new to the ghoul squad and this CAL sounds super fun. I'm about to order the yarn for it. Would the Hobbii Mega Ball Aran work for this blanket?
Thanks so much. Will the patterns for the squares be free? If the hook size is changing with the different squares will this create a problem later with joining the squares? Thanks
Oh ok, thanks so much for the clarification. I am sorry I got that confused. Your hooks are so pretty, love your hair color, makeup and nail color too! 😊
If I were to use a sport weight for a lighter blanket, would I adjust the hook size? I'm new to crochet and I'd like to try this. If hook size doesn't change, what will be different about its appearance? I have a decent amount of the 2 weight yarn that I think might be enough. I bought it during a special. I'd like to avoid buying more yarn if I can.
If you use a thinner yarn the size of the hook would change as well and that would throw off the count of stitches needed for the square. You can always try doubling up the yarn so that it works with the 5.5mm and the stitches would have the right hight and size🎃
@@AltKnots Thanks for answering so quickly! I just found your channel today. Idk if your suggestion would be very beginner friendly for me. I have trouble already with things sliding off my hook. 😅 If I were to go buy yarn, could you give me a rough idea of how much I'd need? I don't want to over/under buy. I know some types of colors (I have a beautiful ombre lions brand) that recommend making sure you have the same lot number on your skeins for big projects.
The square uses about 300yds of yarn and the blanket in total is 3,600yds. Since you’re beginning I’d suggest to stick with the hook I’m using so the square will be the same size. That way you can follow exactly how many stitches for each row🎃
I have too many projects atm but will be doing this blanket in between it all. Ta for reminder that I was not drinking coffee. Grabbed a see ya in Hell mug I bought from Dollarstore. Now I have balance again 🙃
Hey Kayla & Gouhls - Holland Greetings 👻🌹

Super duper excited to learn new stitches month to month and having the end result be a blanket!
I could cry. I just found you and your videos are the easiest for me to follow along. I have crocheted for several years but I only know a few stitches because a lot of crochet videos are hard to follow. Thank you so much.
This sounds like so much fun.

This is unique and I love it. I have not seen James and the Giant Peach. Red and black are two of my favorite colors.
How fun
Need to do this 😊
Just started watching your videos a month ago and I love watching/listening to them while crocheting my own projects 😊
Cheers! Thanks for joining along🦇
I'm far from Gothy but love your enthusiasm... I'll be crocheting along...😁
Love the spider in James and the giant peach , reminds me of Tarantella from the pure dead and deep series of books by Debbi Gliori .
i love this

I have to cut the necks of all of my shirts.... this image placement is perfect! I can't wait to get it! 🖤🕸

Ohhh crap, like I have time to do another Cal! I love this!!!
Are you gonna post the yardage for the whole blanket? ♡ 🕷
Absolutely! I simply forgot to post it in my blog🎃
@Alt Knots sorry to bother you agian lol did you post it on the blog? I wanna order the yarn asap ♡
I would love the yardage also the yarn I want is on sale and I'm really new at this so even a very rough estimate would help so much!
On the blog she stated 3600 yards however it could be more or less depending on your personal tension and hook size used for example if your tension is tighter than hers you would need less or if your tension is looser than hers you will need more than the stated 3600 yards.

I'm soooo excited for this! Thank you!

Ok you convinced me I'm gonna make another blanket 😒🤣🤣🤣 I have 4 blanket wips already
I can't wait to start this! This is going to be so much FUN!! Are we supposed to use the same color as you or do we pick our own colors? Curious.
Totally pick whatever colors speak to you 🦇
I’m so excited for this!🖤 I was just wondering how many rows are we doing for this/each square?✨
Each square will be a bit different nut this square is 70 rows🎃
Might actually make it to this live. The lives are 2am my time so I don’t often make it. This one is the same day as my son Is having foot surgery so I’ll be in the hospital with him over night and probably not sleep much.
I've never seen James and the Giant Peach and i'm excited for the stitch-n-scream along! how many yards of yarn are needed for this part of the blanket?
Hi! Can you post how much yarn that square took and also the dimensions? I'm thinking of using a chunkier yarn 😅 can't wait!
OMG i love this idea. super excited. not to figure out colors.
I love your videos.
This seems exciting
Definitely join the fun!
This crochet along sounds like so much fun! And I've never seen James and the Giant Peach! I've never participated in a Stitch and Scream, either, but it sounds great!

If using 2 colors for the stitch a long about how much yardage of each will we need?
I was about to start a mood blanket but now I’m thinking this needs to be my year long project 🤔🤔
I'm excited
Hi! Wondering when the next one is coming out?
Just stumbled onto this and I’m so excited for it! Question: could one of our colors be a striped or variegated color? Cause I have this super fun neon stripes color with bright colors that I’ve been dying to use 💙
So excited for this! How many skeins of wander yarn does the whole blanket use?
Love this! I'm getting my husband involved and had him choose the colors and he picked a vaporwave theme. So fun! Do you know about how much yardage is in each square? Just trying to figure out how much yarn I'll need.
My friend sent me your vid and honestly I LOVE this so far. I'm ready to join in and have fun.
PS I can't seem to join the facebook group via the link
Hey, I'm new on the ghoul squad and I'm totally getting on board with this! Random question but have you seen the new Silly Socks Disco yarn from Hobbii? It's neon colored and glows in the dark and from UV light. It instantly made me think of your creations. Love it!
Can we see the whole blanket so we can choose our colors of yarn to use?
The Facebook link won’t let me in! 😢
So excited for this.
My friend and I will be making the crochet along and gifting the blankets to each other as hexmas gifts! We're picking the yarn and the colors but I have a question: How many of the 12 squares will need 2 colors? I'm asking because I'm already thinking about placement and how it'll look at the end.
Sooooooo can we get a stitch and scream 2023 sticker? I'd like to reward myself with a water bottle sticker
I can do this I will have to get one, have a hocus pocus shirt
I'm pretty new to the ghoul squad and this CAL sounds super fun. I'm about to order the yarn for it. Would the Hobbii Mega Ball Aran work for this blanket?
I can’t find who much yarn we will be using for this project. How much will we need?!
Yeah and is this UK friendly? In terms of yarn colours x
Do we need to get equal amounts of the two colors?
Not sure how many to buy of the two.
Do you use more of the pomegranate in yours?
Thank you!
please when does the February square coming out please I have been looking for it on here
Every 1st Friday of the month
Hi how do I find the spider stitch tutorial?
Will the blanket require different hook sizes? I'm trying to go ahead and buy all supplies needed for the blanket.
Nope all the squares will use a 5.5mm hook
Thanks so much! I'm going to buy the supplies tomorrow. I think I'm going to do dark purple and lime green! My son's favorite colors 😍
Thanks so much. Will the patterns for the squares be free? If the hook size is changing with the different squares will this create a problem later with joining the squares? Thanks
The size of the hook will stay the same, 5.5mm. I’ll just be changing the style of hook I use 🎃
Oh ok, thanks so much for the clarification. I am sorry I got that confused. Your hooks are so pretty, love your hair color, makeup and nail color too! 😊
If I were to use a sport weight for a lighter blanket, would I adjust the hook size? I'm new to crochet and I'd like to try this.

Thanks for joining!
Never seen it
News letter???? Help please.
I can't join the live chat even though I am subscribed. 😕
Does anyone know if hook 5.25 will work? It says I9 5.25 instead of 5.5. Sorry, I'm new to crochet! 😆
It can work the blanket will just be smaller
