2019 Bernat Stitch Along Announcement || JOANN

2019 is an AMAZING year for both Red Heart and Yarnspirations! This is the year that they are joining forces and becoming one large yarn hub. Now that we are all one big happy family I am joining in for the 2019 Stitch Along with JOANN and Yarnspirations. Want to know how this stitch along works, what you will need, what you will make and more? Find all of the details in this announcement of the 2019 Bernat Stitch Along.

What is a Stitch Along:

Let’s start at the very beginning. If you aren’t familiar with the term ‘stitch-along’ let me explain it to you.

Most of you might know about a crochet along or a knit along, we have been doing them for a few years with Red Heart. This is a little different in the fact that we are offering both a knit and crochet version of this project so that we can all work together! Knitter and crocheters alike can join in and participate in this project.

A stitch along is a group of people coming together to knit/crochet the same project in the same timeframe. The best part about this stitch along is that there will be video tutorials for both versions each week!

I will only be teaching the knitting version of the stitch along and will being joining Mikey from the Crochet Crowed as he teaches the crochet version. Be sure to check out his post about the stitch along to see which version you like better!

Announcing the 2019 Bernat Stitch Along:

What Are We Making:

For our stitch along we will be making a beautiful Knit Festive Textures Afghan. Both the knit and crochet versions are very similar and you will enjoy either pattern that you decide to go with.

This blanket is knit with Bernat Blanket yarn in very modern colors. But you can choose any color combination you wish to make yours match your home.

This is a 6 week knit-along hosted by Marly Bird. The crochet-along is hosted by Mikey at The Crochet Crowd.

    For the give away contest, must the yarn be Bernat or is it any yarn as long as pattern is followed? I have some extra yarn that I was thinking of using, but I have no idea the manufacturer.

    Thanks.

      It can be with any yarn. We would love for you to use something from Yarnspirations if possible but we understand using up your stash as well.
