- I am finally finishing a project my Oma started over 20 years ago! I got this yarn 15 years ago when I was first learning how to crochet from my Oma. But who know how long ago she started these squares!

I’m a 33 year old who graduated from film school 11 years ago. So I have decided to put my education to some good use!
This is so amazing! My grandma knit and crocheted and I have a lot of her stuff because my mom never learned. She was in the middle of making a baby sweater for me when she got sick and never finished it. 34 years later, I plan on finishing it when I get pregnant. It almost feels like it was meant to be us finishing a project "together."
Awww that is so cute 😊🧡
I was watching this thinking how it's a beautiful big hug from your Oma and how I'm sure she would love that you did this. My grannie died last year and I would have loved to be able to do something like this so instead I'm going to be cutting her clothes and making a memory blanket
That is such a good idea!🧡
The color scheme is very "80's preppy mom." Well done! My granny left me a bunch of yarn, and I love the pieces I made with that yarn. It's a great way to stay connected to her memory.
Aww that so sweet 🧡
Its so lovely to be able to put your Oma's squares to good use. It loks beautiful. Every time you wear it youll be reminded of her and it will feel extra cozy and comforting.
I love this so much. Being able to Incorporate your Oma's work into your own, is just priceless. I was very close to my grandmother, and I miss her so much to this day. I treasure everything I have that was hers. The colors look really pretty on you as well. Happy Fall!!! ❤
When I started crocheting last year, I felt a weird connection to my great grandmas. I never met them so it felt like I met them through this shared craft.
I get a similar warmth from this project. 😊
This is such a beautiful way to have your Oma with you for years to come, so special that you made this together 💙 I also just picked up that Sapphire color of impeccable for a winter sweater, it’s so pretty!
The sapphire blue is such a pretty colour!💙
last night i found out my 4 month old niece finds your videos soothing. turned this on when she was fighting a nap and she immediately fell asleep!
Oh but it's so cute Michelle, and your Oma would have been so happy and proud of what you've done with her square-tangles 😉☺. That cardigan makes me think of winter ❄, once again you did a wonderful job putting this cardigan together 💙🤍
I inherited all of my Oma’s crochet hooks and knitting needles. I treasure them! My background is Dutch and we say Oma and Opa too. I believe that they also do in Sweden.
Our grandbabies call me “Oma” & hubby “Opa”! Loved seeing this ☺️🫶🏻🧶
Add some really cool buttons.They'll bring an extra vibe to the project. Don't forget to sew in the ends.
It's a really cool project, I guess your granny ( Oma) was planning to crochet a blanket.
That cardigan looks so cozy! I love that dark blue colour you chose, I think it matches the other patches so well! 💙
I love how the cooler toned color scheme turned out! Such a special project ❤️
When you started talking about the arms being wrong, in my head I was like "nooooooo Michelle, don't do it to yourself" cause I have to undo stuff all the time and it can be very upsetting ha. But if you gotta change it, you gotta change it. Otherwise you won't wear it. As we have learned, many times.
I love this, the colors and everything looks so good!
Aw Michelle 🥺 finishing something made from your grandma‘s hands is so sweet ❤ I love this sm
When I’m trying to figure out if I have enough yarn to make additional of something I already made - like squares for a patchwork - I’ll weigh the already made piece using a cheap kitchen scale and then weigh the yarn I have available. If the yarn weighs more it will probably work (depending on gauge obviously). It gives me a really good basis for whether something has a chance of having enough yarn.
"Hot Rod" is magnificent.
I have been binge watching your videos, and surprise surprise, you post a new one! Also this is just such a beautiful idea🎉
This came out amazing!!! I wish I had some of my grandma's unfinished work to incorporate into my own. I know it was a labor of love but really amazing to have her quite literally stitched into the final piece. I'm sure she would be so proud! 💗
I really like this color scheme on you for a change of pace! I can’t get over how good the colors look together.
What a great project! Thanks for sharing,
This is beautiful! Great job! I love that you reused your Omas Squares. This makes me so sentimental.😍
Does your family have a German background or why do you call your granny Oma?🥰
My Oma was from Germany! 😊
@@michelle_jasekDo you speak any German? 👀
@@michelle_jasek That's nice! I am from Germany but I have some distant relatives in the US. I guess they moved at the same time your Oma moved to the US. Thanks for the reply!🥰
What a special project. I love the color scheme and the greens and blues look really good on you!
You did amazing! It inspires me to try to do this. I started learning how to crochet because I really wanted a patchwork cardigan that was $200 😅 that was almost 2 years ago and I still haven’t tried it!
ME TOO!!! I'm rewatching Stranger Things... But I'm going backwards. Just finished Season 4, now watching Season 3 😝😝 Well done on making Oma sweater... Love it!! She would've been sooo proud ❤
ooooh i love the movie hot rod!
I wish I watched this before I made my sweater vest. Love this idea!! Super sweet keepsake.
quick tip to line up patchwork colors: solved sudoku!! I'm currently using it for a massive blanket and it's easier to think when I can see the possibilities laid out in front of me :)
Hey do you have some more info about the silver sudoku method you use? Really intrigued on this!
Love this!!!❤❤❤🧶
Thank you 😊
First of all…I LOVE that you are doing this.
Secondly, if you weight the square on a kitchen scale you’ll see approximately how many grams of yarn it takes. Then you can weight your scraps to see if there’s enough for a square.
I use my scale all the time to see if I have enough yarn for another row of an Afghan, for instance.
Oh, and you should wear more blue- it looks amazing on you!
this is beautiful!! your oma would be proud❤also im from the netherlands, and oma is also our word for grandma, i didn’t know it was also german and thought you were part dutch when i read the title! 😂
It’s gorgeous! Love it!
This is so beautiful!
So cute!
The cardigan looks so cozy and I'm a big fan the winter-ish colours! BTW have you purchased any accessories for the paper shoot camera? I would love to see an update on what you think about it :) Love your vids
so cute!
also oma is a dutch woord for grandma
Think of it as a hug from Oma 😉
Stranger things season 1 is the best!!! It is also my favorite!
I love your projects, but you talk so fast and go back and forth on ideas constantly that it causes me extreme anxiety! Lol!
