Lesson 1: Solid and Flower Power Mitered Squares

Grab your needles and get ready for the first lesson of our Red Heart Stitch Along. In this first lesson, you’ll use our Red Heart All in One Flower Power yarn in an entirely new way to make a 3-stripe Mitered Square. You’ll also learn how to make your solid squares to get your jacket underway. Once you’ve finished, come back for next week's lesson!


Lesson 2: Granny Mitered Squares

Welcome back for our second lesson! In this lesson, you’ll use the skills you learned last week to create your five colored Mitered Squares. Once you’ve completed this, we’ll teach you how to sew all your squares together to form the body of your jacket, getting you ready to start week 3.
