I think that square pattern is my most favorite of all squares I know how to do. How precious to have that from Grandma. I have my grandmother's finished afghans that she made everytime she came from NY to visit. She loved the ripple pattern which I can't do very well. Happy Birthday Anja.
I love how your Grandma put so many stars on them. That took a lot of time and love.
Ohh Anja, you were so sure about needing tissues when watching your Grandma’s granny video. I have to ran and closed my bedroom door for crying with you. Tears ran down my eyes, and memories of my grandma’s flooded my head and began to catch on me but it was lovely. The pictures you used on the video with your Grandma and you reminded me of my childhood. You are an amazing individual...be blessed!
But what shall we comment
Very talented family
When you touched the unfinished square, I got emotional too! I know what it feels like to lose someone so special. Her memories are in the blanket cherish the memories and the blanket forever!!!
Grandma is smiling big. What a beautiful treasure.
Oh Anja, when you were going through the box & you came across the strip that your grandma didn't get to complete I started crying with you💝
It was as if she left it just for you😊💞🌹🌷🌸🌼
I wish you a very, very beautiful Birthday🌹🌞💕🌻🐈
So touching! I cried, too, when you pulled out the unfinished square and just kept hugging your Grandma close to you. She has blessed you again. You did lovely work putting it together. Thank you for sharing.
I started crying when you saw the unfinished square, such a sweet reaction the way you squeezed it
When I saw the unfinished square I cried with you, its so precious to got to have that 🥺
It really is very special to me. Thank you for watching Sad Frogo ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Beautiful! Your Grandma would just love what you have done!
I bet your heart is so tender with the treasure your grandma left you. I believe your and my grandma are crocheting in heaven together. With all my love to you.
What a wonderful heirloom, I’m sure your lovely grandmother would be so proud of you. To preserve the memory I think I would save a sample square and arrange it in a simple white box frame together with the emotional unfinished piece, adding a pretty crochet hook, and put it on display in the studio. X
That is a wonderful idea.
What a fabulous idea!
I love that idea...
Brilliant idea x
GENIUS!!!
This is so beautiful, a great way to honor your grandmothers legacy
My Dear Anja, everytime I see you cry, I cry as well. The video that first brought me to you was the one where you displayed all (that you had access to) of your Grandma's blankets. I have enjoyed watching you since. I find your videos to be relaxing and inspiring. I want you to know that you and your creations, especially the Ode to Anna Blanket, have helped me get through Covid. I know that I told you on Sunday, but I just keep making them in different colors and giving them to family members. So I feel like our families are connected across the ocean by a beautiful length of yarn. Keep creating and inspiring Dear Girl. We all love you so. Suzanne
That is so amazing Suzanne that you are making the blankets and give them to family members. When I started this channel I never thought that a bit of yarn and a crochet hook could connect so many people around the world and I am particularly happy that it made a positive difference in these testing times. Love Anja ❤❤
Hello Anja! Well, as you opened the box, my heart swelled with joy. When you ever lifted the partially made square, my eyes just welled up and overflowed. I just couldn’t stop the tears. It brought back so many memories of trinkets and so forth I have found of my mom’s who passed 29 years ago. The beauty of your grandma’s work is unmistakable. Your own amazing skill just brought her such honor. Simply Stunning. A duet project with someone you loved so dearly. You and your family will cherish it forever. What a labor of love!
Thank you so much for your kind words. When I saw that part of a square so much went through my mind as I did not expect it to be there. Our moms and grandparents are closer to us than you think. Thank you so much for watching Lee Stone ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
It is so amazing to have these from her. What an amazing gift. Makes me cry. I'm so glad u kept the one she started. U did a wonderful job.
Enjoy every Moments in your memories, held in this blanket.
Happy Birthday
Disclaimer: tissue needed!!! How absolutely beautiful. Your grandma would be so proud!!
I could barely watch this. So special. Grandmas are the best. I miss mine everyday. 💕
How exciting to finish your Grandma’s blanket 😀
Just beautiful! You are a lucky lady to have had such a beautiful grandmother. She must be smiling in heaven....🙏🏼
Yes, thank you. Thank you for watching ThinkingOutThere ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
I actually started crying when you pulled out the little strip she had been working on. I saw the loop where she would have started the next stitch and thought "She left it so you could finish it."
That's how I felt but it took me a long time before I was able to start this project. ❤ Thank you for watching Wendi Jackson ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
What a treasure! I cried with you when you found the unfinished square. ❤ Thank you for sharing.
Happy birthday!!! You’re grandma would be so proud and to have you do this on you birthday! Makes me cry.
Oh I cried too. My grandmother was very special to me as well. I wish I had something special of hers like this lovely blanket. Your grandmother would be so proud of how you completed her work of art. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. ❤
I cried with you when you touched the unfinished square. She would be so proud of your crochet and TH-cam channel.
Oh yes she would but at the same time probably don't understand that the whole world can watch it. Thank you for watching poodlegirl55 ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
What I have of my grandma are her crochet hooks and some old pattern books.
When I was young she tried to teach me to crochet. But I wasn’t interested.
My grandma passed a long time ago,and I miss her very much.
One day I seen a pattern for a little doll. I got all the material I needed to crochet this little doll.
After I gathered all the supplies I put my hands up and said OK grandma I’m ready to do it please help me.
And I crocheted that little doll. I gave them a little doll to my niece it was for the Fourth of July, she had on a little bed white and blue dress.
And that began my crochet journey
Isn't that just wonderful. It is just as if she was there, holding your hand one more time to teach you. ❤❤❤
Oh Anja, this is so lovely, I am laughing and crying with you, your Grandma would be so happy and proud of you, seeing how much you appreciate her and her beautiful work. She had a great feeling for colours and style, and you got that from her. I wish you all the best, happy Birthday, stay healthy and safe! 😘💕🧶🎉🎂🐈💓Anne
❤
How emotional I cried with you,I know exactly how it feels.
Such a precious memory she would be so proud of you❤️😇
Happy birthday and look forward to more wonderful creations😘
Aww, I'm so overwhelmed.
That's such a great gesture.
The blanket looks lovely.
Happy Birthday Anja
How sweet that you are touching the same part of your late Grandmother's blanket where she left off. You crochet like her! What a pretty woman she was! She probably folded the squares so they would fit into the storage box. I like her choice of colors. She must have wanted to use up stash/sale yarn, and chose those different colors. I love how your grandmother's blanket turned out! She made it with love!
Oh my goodness! That surprise made me teary-eyed. How special!
Thank you for watching Joy K ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
This is stunning and was an extremely emotional rollercoaster to watch. I have a few projects of my mom’s (who taught me how crochet 48 years ago). Rest In Love Mom. Thank you for sharing and your transparency.
I'm sure your grandma is very proud of you. I would be in tears just like you finding an heirloom like that. Knowing you're grandma touched those squares & now your touching them, so emotional.
I should have looked in that box before and I didn't. Did not expect that unfinished square. Thank you for watching Joyce Quintero ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
I’m sure that she is smiling down on you, happy that her blanket is finished. And what a beauty it is!
I wish you the happiest of birthdays!
Thank you so much. xx
Oh Anja, I started crying the minute you did! I'm so proud of you for making a blanket you'll cherish for the rest of your life and your children after you and hopefully many more generations to come. I know how hard it was for you; now it's out of the box and getting used. The blanket is so beautiful. I also loved all your photos; especially the one with 4 generations of women - amazing!!!
You are so blessed to have your grandmothers squares. I know that she would love to know that you finished it for her. So heartfelt. May God be with you. ❤️🙏🏽
Thank you so much! Thank you for watching Sharon Arrendale ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
How amazing to be able to work on your grandma’s project. Something to treasure forever.
I can’t help but cry watching this. Your grandma is beautiful and so are you!💖✨💫
Thank you so much Annie, I hope you will enjoy the project, Anja x
I shall indeed! I can’t wait for November and looking forward to decorating my box with pretty flowers like your grandma 💖You make crocheting so fun and enjoyable Anya I appreciate you and thank you 🌸🧶💖
Beautiful heirloom to have. I have just done the same with squares my mum had left which my dad had cut-out( she was a great seamstress and knitter and crocheted....) dad died 11years ago and mum died four years ago and one of the positives to come out of Covid lockdown was I finally could face taking these squares out and putting together four small blankets for my brothers and sisters. Some of the material had been used to make clothes for my children and my nieces so there were a lot of memories as I stitched these together and yes Anja like you a lot of tears. But I love what you have done not just this but all you have done to keep us upbeat during these not so pleasant times. And I know this blanket you have just completed will mean so much more to you now. 💕💕❤️❤️❤️
Oh, you are such a wonderful person. 😘😊😘❤
Oh Anja! What a beautiful video, thank you so much for sharing it with us! I had tears in my eyes too when you came across that last piece of unfinished crochet by your lovely grandma. So many hours spent patiently making those beautiful squares, all carefully folded and put away, waiting for the right moment for you to complete the blanket made by her hands and your hands. She would be so proud of you and your mother must be too. Thank you all your lovely work and generous and kind teaching. Your videos are always a delight. A very happy birthday to you and many many happy returns. xxxxx
You are so kind. Thank you so much!! ❤😘
What a precious way to remember & honour your grandmas memory. I feel that she was guiding you through every stitch & would be so happy that you have finished her WIP in such a fantastic way x
Yes it was! Thank you for watching Bev Gregory ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
This is so beautiful Anja, it makes me want to finish a box of my husband's mothers. I never got to meet her but I've been holding onto them because I think they represent someone precious
I was crying for you and myself, happiness and sadness. My grandmother taught me to knit and crochet. I still cherish the needles I have from her.
My mom and Uncle still have a crocheted granny square blanket she made. Thank you so much for sharing such a special birthday with us Anja!!
Happy Happy Birthday to you!
It doesn't get more precious than this, oh my gosh Anja! To hold in your hands that little unfinished block, your hands lovingly cup it, cherish it like a gem stone. It is worth far more any gem stone. I am so happy with you that you could finish your ouma's blanket on your birthday. A gift from your ouma to you. Happy birthday dear Anja. May you be blessed far more than you ever could dream of. Much love and hugs :) xoxo
You are the most loyal and beautiful grand daughter 😍you know when you showed us the uncompleted square my eyes filled with tears 😭😭God bless u and RIP gorgeous grandmama 🙏🏻🙏🏻 happiest birthday and so much love from kurdistan
You are so kind. 🙏 Thank you for watching Minaro 76 ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
How lovely to have such a keepsake of your Grandma. You have, I’m sure, captured the look she was looking for as you knew her so well. Thank you for sharing with us all.
Love the beautiful blanket ! I know you have many fobd memories of your grandmother. I love your videos. Thanks for the opportunity to win some awesome yarn. Good luck everyone.
I wanted to cry, when Anja squeezed her grandma's granny square she started to make after all those many granny squares. It's almost like you where trying to squeeze it, as if you where, feel your granny through the grannyv square. Bless your precious heart Anja !
Just loved watching you react to finding the unfinished square, Anja. I can only imagine what was going through your mind. I have an all wool granny square blanket, about twin size, that my great grandmother made. She died at age 101 years, when I was in my early 20s, and I'm nearly 75 now. She also knit baby sweaters for my first 2 children. These things we will cherish, forever, right? I love the blanket all sewn together! Thank you for the pleasure of watching!
It is so thoughtful of you to finish your grandma’s blanket!☺️I just wish she was there watching to see what a lovely grandaughter she has.I am just so glad that you decided to finish it, she would have been proud!❤️
Best Birthday wishes!🍰🎈🎉🎉✨✨🧶

How lovely!
And I have to say, You looked like a temptress in that photo of the four generations!!!! Hot mama! lol
Anja, seriously! 1 minute in and I’m welling up! You’re not allowed to make people cry on your birthday! 😜
Ok... Proceeding with the video, now. I cannot wait to see what’s inside the box!!!
No, no, no... 2 minutes in and all I can think about is how your Moeke’s hands were the last things touching those squares before your own hands. 😩 It’s the next best thing to holding her hands.
... ok... carry on...
3 minutes plus...
I’m not crying, you’re crying! 😭
You are so generous to have shared this intimate project with us 💕
It turned out absolutely divine! ❤️😘
What a Gorgeous blanket !! Those colors look so lovely together!! I’m glad you have one last blanket made by your grandma ❤️❤️
Well that was a tearjerker for me. But in a good way. What a wonderful and poignant way to honor your Grandma. I am thinking she would be super proud and approve of all of this. Thank you for such a lovely celebration of your Grandma and a life well-lived. 💕
Thank you so much! ❤
Such a lovely and poignant tribute to your dear grandma. Thank you for sharing love for her and your grandpa...what a wonderful bday gift to be able to see this beautiful blanket every day and feel her presence...I spilled some tears when you held the yarn she was working on 🤗💜😍🙏🏼🎁
Thank you so much! I am glad that I finally did make a blanket with her squares. I did not realize that there was a part she did not finish when I was making the video so that was emotional. I have peace now that I did it. Thank you for watching Semira Semino-Asaro ! Anja xxx 💕🌈

Beautiful blanket!! How wonderful to find the square that she had started....I'm happy for you Anja!
Wow. So emotional watching this. This has given me the inspiration to complete a Cat stitching that my father started but didn’t get chance to finish.
I have vowed to finish it and get it framed this year.
Thank you for sharing. Wishing you a Happy Birthday and hope to see you soon. Love to you and Dirk. Xxx

Dear Anja, what a beautiful video! Thank you for sharing. So emotional❤
I was crying with you while watching. I love the idea that this blanket was made by her and you together👭.
You have a wonderful priceless treasure in your hands, the legacy of your grandma: beautiful crocheted items and also a lot of photos of her. You are very lucky for this, my sweet Anja 🎂🌹💖
I am happy that I finally made the blanket and indeed it felt like we crocheted together. Thank you for watching Raffaella Porri ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
"SUCH A BEAUTIFULLY HEARTFELT VIDEO" 💘
Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment with us. Made me long for my Grandma, Aunties and all the ones we've lost.
You are so welcome ❤
Your grandmother would be so proud. Im sure she is smiling down on you and loving your shared blanket that you both did x
What a beautiful blanket that you and your grandma have made together! Such a touching story.💖 Thank you for sharing it with us.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching April Warren ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Such an emotional find and you must keep that small crochet snippet as it is, for posterity. Beautifully made squares, I love the design on each and purple and green go so well together. Lot of work sewing in the ends. How fortunate that there are holes to make it easier when assembling the squares. Lovely to see the finished results. Tfs, your grandmother would praise you for completing this.
I definitely will keep the snippet as it is. I think so she would be very happy, me finishing her blanket. Thank you for watching Mary Barratt ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
This is absolutely beautiful, your grandmother would be so proud ❤️ Happy Birthday 🥳
It is a Sunday afternoon and I am crocheting away watching this video with my eyes tearing up as you find your Grandma’s last interrupted row of crochet! What a lovely memory for you. She has blessed you for sure.
Yes it was a very teary moment for me too! She would be amazed at everyone watching and making her blankets too! Thank you for watching, Anja.
How sweet to see her beautiful work and then for you to have the honor of finishing the blanket in her memory. Each of those stitches are stitches of love that will forever be memories of her and her love for you!
Anja, the squares are beautiful. I was moved to tears when you showed the crochet square that she was working on.
Such sweet memories of your grandmother. Thanks for sharing.
Happy Birthday!!!💜🎉🎊
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching Gracie Kanalas ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Awe so sweet a birthday gift to yourself from your grandmother. How proud she must be seeing it all finished. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much Ark Rosebud, Anja x
You are so very welcome dear lady. I miss my grandmother so much, she was the sweetest lady and watching your video of your unboxing of her squares really touched my heart. My grandma Jonnie Bell crocheted as well and I am so happy she made me an Afghan before she passed. She was taken suddenly as a passenger in an automobile accident years ago. It still breaks my heart just as it did the day we lost her. She had made an ivory blanket in a popcorn stitch that was so beautiful, nobody knows what ever became of it. I think I may have to give it a try myself, but I can tell it’s gonna take some time and lots of yarn. Wish me luck as I have only recently taken up crochet after thirty plus years of my first try at it. So, it’s my understanding that crochet was taught in your schools? Is that still true today?
It's lovley to have keepsake that can be passed down the years to family your grandma was very talented as you are thank you for sharing
Thank you so much. Thank you for watching Diana Garrett ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Beautiful Beautiful Memories xxx
They really are. Thank you for watching Margaret Taylor ! Don't forget Margaret Taylor I do a live video on Sundays at 20.30 GMT, be there for live interaction with me! Thank you for watching and keep crocheting! Anja xxx
What a special special surprise to find the incomplete square from your dearest grandmother! I am sure that all of use watching was crying with you. Happy Birthday Anja, and I am sure your dearest grandmother is smiling from the heavens. Xx
Wow, what a present! I can tell you miss her, but this blanket you .ca always remember her by. Thank you for this!
Got me all choked up... so sweet. What an important and beautiful blanket.
It really is an important one. Thank you so much for watching Susanne Wright ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Lovely memories. Thank you for sharing your grandma with us.x
Sad but wonderful memories Anja.
Holding a little bit of your grandmother in your hands.
I'm crying with you ❤️❤️
Sending hugs
Happy Birthday Anja xxx
What a wonderful gift you received from your grandmother! I like very much how you finished it. I 've got a blanket made by my great grandmother and it's so precious for me.
Anja so beautiful.Thank you so much for sharing that special moment with all of your friends. I don't think there was a dry eye.💖
Anya, did you have this experience? When my mom died, we packed away everythiing of hers because I couldn't bear to go through it. For years when we would finally open a certain box or another, say looking for a certain bloouse or jacket she wore, her "scent" would envelope us when we first opened the box. It was a mix of her perfume, her cigarettes (of course) and whatever other sweet scent that brought her back so close to use. When you opened your grandmother's box of precious items, my eyes filled with tears and I wondered if yours did too. I love the way you honor your grandmother (mine both died before I was born) and it brings my own feelings for my long-gone mother to the forefront. And, of course, your grandmother's crochet work was beautiful and creative. Love to you!
I just commented, not realizing it was 8 months ago!! You can use a 3 rd color to tie them in together. Beautiful! A job of love!!
You should have warned me, I started crying to! ❤️ so much work your grandma put into her blankets, it’s so nice that you finish this one for her. 👍
This video was so lovely - the part when you found your grandmother’s unfinished square made me tear up!! Your love for your family is so evident in your videos. Thank you for the gift of the autumn walk CAL, too. I gave it to my sister-in-law for Christmas and it is absolutely treasured by her now ❤️
