In this Stitch Away Crochet Collab, I’m teaming up with Sarah from @1Hook2Hands, and we’re working on our Sophie's Universe blankets together. The fun part is we’re checking in every Thursday so you can see real progress week by week—no pressure, just steady stitching and lots of encouragement. In this video, I’m sharing that I’ve completed Part 1, and I’m bringing you along for the start of this big, beautiful blanket journey. If you’ve been wanting to jump into a crochet-a-long style project (or you’ve been eyeing Sophie's Universe and feeling a little intimidated), this is your sign to stitch with us. I love having a crochet buddy for projects like this because it keeps me motivated and makes the whole process feel more like a community hangout than a “perfect project” race. Come follow along, compare progress, and let’s keep each other inspired all the way through.
