The gradating yarn doing the colorwork for me is pure genius—each block just flows into the next without any fiddly color changes. I followed the YouTube link while making my first square and had the whole rhythm down in an evening.

I was a bit nervous about crocheting a cardigan, but the step-by-step YouTube tutorial made it so easy to follow. The granny squares worked up quickly with the self-striping yarn since there’s no need to switch colors. This pattern is perfect for a cozy, one-of-a-kind layering piece.

The matching gradating yarn means I never have to stop and switch balls mid-square, which made the whole cardigan feel effortless. That linked YouTube tutorial was a lifesaver for the granny square joins, honestly. I’ve already started a second one in a different colorway.
