thanks for this grate tutorial you are very clear and understandable and you don't rush through so my autistic brain can keep up. I'm a beginner I started knitting during the covid lockdowns i started with hats now I'm hoping to knit a blanket for my sensory room.
Hello !! I whined a month ago under this pattern. Wishing you made the whole blanket in video..Well I went and made a few other projects...and now this one doesn’t intimidate me so much ! 😊. I feel I can now try this for a baby blanket..😊 Now that I have a little experience I am liking your pattern videos !! Thank you for making so many. 😊
Girl you are awesome! I’ve watched a lot of loom videos to get the info I need and it is often tedious. It’s so enjoyable to watch your video! You are clear, concise, easy to follow and the info is spot on. I’m so glad I found this video it has helped me so much! As stated in other comments telling us to pause and not doing the ff thing is so much easier to follow. Thank you so much for sharing your talents and time with us!
Thank you for this video, I tried asking others to explain how to add new color but their videos tutorial is as good as yours but yours better. You even explain combo moves as knitting and purl at the same time how awesome is that. Once again thank you so much.
I used this video to make my first ever baby blanket! The instructions are easy and the blanket looks cute, for being a first attempt. Thanks so much for making this tutorial!
So glad I watched this. The cast on is fantastic and your videos are really good. Your explanations are clear and easy to follow and I like that you tell me to pause, and you don't show either a fast forward version of you completing or an actual time version. I have narcolepsy often waiting for the next step to be explained in other videos I have watched I nod off lol..
New knitter here, loom and needles but I’m working with a straight loom. Question. This can be as wide as I want to make, right? Like the measurements of an actual crib blanket? Help!
Thank you for sharing your video. Wondering if you may know how to use the same yarn to make a shawl or a poncho with it. My granddaughter loves this wool and would like a poncho or shawl from it to wear. Thank you
Yes! The pattern is for a baby blanket but you can make it any size depending on loom and number of pegs. You could also sew panels together if you don’t have a loom wide enough. It’s flexible.
Can anyone answer me please??? Is this have a blanket and y’all do 2 of these then put them together or is this really a whole baby blanket??? It seems so small in width?
@@kimberlylemmon458 hi! I just saw this pop up in notifications. (I usually don’t see so fast. lol). The sample I made is super small for the video. The pattern is a small baby blanket and has the cast on listed (although I think I mention in the beginning). You can totally cast on as many stitches as you like for a wider width and add more rows to increase the length. Feel free to make bigger. ❤️
That loom can work in multiple ways; loom knitting is also called rake knitting. I’m using 1 rake at a time for a single knit (thinner). However you can use two at a time for a double knit or THICKER fabric... 1. You can work single knit in a flat panel like I’m doing in the video. 2. You can work single knit in-the-round or circular; to get a tube. 3. Or you can work both rakes at the same time for a double knit fabric; pegs can be used in pairs or different patterns of skipping and wrapping pegs to get different stitch patterns. Most knitting we wear in life are single knit and not double; this also goes for blankets and scarves. So knowing how to single knit on looms is a great skill. I hope this helps. Be sure to watch my series on How to Loom Knit. :)
The castnoff works for a baby blanket but don't use it for a full size blanket on an S or infinity loom, no matter how loose you keep your loops it ends up too tight. I made a toddler blanket with this and it turnes out fine, made a queen size blanket for my teen and this was too tight even after taking it out, re-attaching the original loops and casting off again 3 different times it just comes off too tight.
What are your recommendations on making this in one color, super chunky 6 acrylic yarn, on an afghan loom? I’m thinking of making a baby blanket in bernat softee because I need something more easily washable. Thank you!
I finished my baby blanket using a 62 peg long loom. It looks great so thank you very much for this video! However, I realize now taking it off the loom that my cast off row is a little bit too tight. Do you have suggestions on how to fix it? Perhaps even a video? It’s off the loom but I have yet to weave in my tail. Help please!
Using Ewraps for knits in bind offs can keep it loose but if that’s not loose enough Nat sure you are not tightening up too much and you move stitches over. You can undo your bind off and place back on the loom to bind off. If your yarn is to short you could back up a row to add yarn in and then make a row and bind off. You’ll just have a few extra tails to weave in but it will be a better finish for you. I’m so glad you enjoy the blanket and tutorial otherwise! 😁 Be sure to tag me on Instagram @goodknitkisses if you take photos.
Thank you. Once I fix this, yes I can tag you. My tail is plenty long enough but I have no idea how to put it back on the loom. I’ve googled it and asked others and I’m still lost. I don’t have any friends who are loom knitters. I was thinking of taking my time and essentially tracing the yarn manually to loosen it. I imagine that will be tedious. Putting it back on the loom definitely seems like the way to go to but clueless as to how to do that. There doesn’t seem to be any information on that.
@@charissel.3817 Try jumping to minute 22:32 in this video link. It shows where I have some stitches on a scrap piece of yarn and put them on the loom. This is what you can do if you undo your bind off slowly and pull out a row. After you pull out the bind off you can use a tapestry or darning needle with a contrasting color of scrap yarn and run it through the loops that aren’t on pegs. These are your live loops. If you have trouble you can pull out the row before going stitch by stitch to put your needle and extra yarn through each loop individually. After you get them all on (and fixed any dropped stitches) you can place back on the loom like in this video here. Remember to jump to minute 22:32 th-cam.com/video/BAeym_MV49o/w-d-xo.html
Hi Kristen. I love your videos! I recently started loom knitting as I have arthritis of my hands and found this a little easier to do than the needles. I attempted the baby loomed blanket but find that by the third row, the yarn is tight and difficult to pull over the peg. I’ve done the pattern 3 times with the same results. What am I doing wrong and how do I fixit? Thank you and pls keep your awesome videos coming!!
I have been using the looms for years. My thoughts for your question is this, try stitching loose. From my experience it’s because you did it to tight.
Hi, love your videos! Like others here, I'm new to knitting and super excited about starting this blanket! When knitting this exact blanket in one color how many rows should I count? If I calculated your paper correctly from this video it came to 152... but I'd like to be sure before beginning. Also, am I counting the 152 as ridges or rows? I'd appreciate your detailed response greatly! ♡
So I'm halfway through this blanket (thank you for the pattern & video) but I have decided that really do not like using the loom. Can I switch this to needles and if so how?
I’m following your video of switching the colors to go up the side. I have noticed on some of it that there is a big gap. What did I do wrong? On the stripe pattern 2, I switched the colors between the 2nd and 3rd ridge. How can I add a border?
Love the pattern, your videos are very helpful....taught me to knit with needles :) I started the blanket on a loom due to a wrist injury when I couldn't knit. Unfortunately, now that I'm recovered I would rather finish the blanket on needles instead of the loom (the loom is just not my thing). Is there any way that I can transfer it to needles and finish it? I'm 3/4 of the way through so I'd rather not rip it apart...I really need to finish before the baby graduates ;)
I want to try this as soon as I've finished my current project. I am curious though, can I double up my wool or is it easier to simply use a chunkier wool?
@@Sandraromulo yes I give the instructions on here and refer to the written pattern link so you can complete. Link in video description. Basically a series of garter stitch rows (alternating one row knit and one row purl) and change the color on a knit row (e-wrap is a knit stitch). When you get to your desired length then use a basic bind off.
Hi there Kristen. Love your videos and appreciate all the time and energy you put in them. I went to your blog to see the written pattern (not that I know how to read one yet) and signed up for your updates. Just wanted to let you know that your sign up prompt is cool in hot pink but the letters when we type are in light gray and a bit hard to see. Not a big deal really but you put a lot of thought into design and this may be a place to revisit :)

I was trying to find one for this garter stitch baby blanket but can't seem to locate it. I did find the links for purchase of these pdf patterns. Sorry, I even used the large print on my computer...maybe I need to check my eye sight...(smile)
Hi Lyn. Thank you so much for joining as a VIP! :-) As a level 2 member we email each pattern on their release to our current member list. all new patterns that release go to level 2+ members. There isn't a good way to retroactively do what you are asking since the member lists fluctuates at times.

You can make this on other looms. because of the purl rows though it won't curl on any of them though. Now, because of the severe bend in the oblong long loom it bends. But after a washing or blocking that would clear up.
Alexis Dittman I go over that in the video. You use all the pegs but I’m knitting a sample in the video. If you want it wider than the pattern states (see link in description) then you’ll need a bigger loom. ☺️
Why are the terms different for Loom Knitting? For example, garter stitch is knit every row in needle knitting and stockinette stitch is knit a row, purl a row. I find this confusing.
dawn7656 the final knit fabric in “garter stitch” for both needle and loom are the same thing. However needles turn every other row. On a loom it is ALWAYS on the Right Side. But needle worked “in the round” are all right side as well. So to make a garter stitch on needle in the round you have to work a purl every other row to get the garter stitch fabric. A loom just does the same whether a flat panel or in the round. For stockinette a loom only needs to knit all the stitches. To further clarify this please look at knitting charts. The chart symbols reflect what the fabric will look like. To work Wrong Side rows a needle knitted must look at the key and use the opposite stitch or the one spelled out as the wrong side row appropriate stitch. For a loom one simply works whatever is shown on the chart. I hope that helps
On the cast on part (putting the first yarn on the loom) you will put it on all of the pegs. Stop on the last one and turn and work the other way. IF you continue to go in the same direction it will connect the two ends and you end up knitting a circle. And actually it would be a great way to make a cowl or infinity scarf.
Aurora Quinones you cast on all the pegs just like the first several. You can stop wherever you like. I suggested not the last one because you will work back and fort and the visual stop of not having a stitch on a peg helps many people to NOT connect the blanket at the ends there. You don’t need to see the whole thing as it is same stitches over and over. The photo for the baby blanket is in the beginning and on the blog. The blog also has the pattern for you so you have written instructions.
I don’t get it. I see a lot of loom videos and the blanket they show aren’t big enough even for a new birth the width of the all seem small. (I’ve only been knitting and just looking into the looms and I don’t know which loom to get for blankets)
Ugh ! Beginner here... sure wish video was showing a full baby size blanket being made instead of just a sample.. As a beginner I found it confusing...So off to look for beginner friendly baby blanket being made in full for me to try making...
Fuck it I hate it tried it but no drawing is way better for me I hate the people who made it and I hate yarns and knitting and definitely hate crochet people i hate it I love drawing so ya good day.😂

Sandra you can go it on whatever side!
Why are the terms different for Loom Knitting? For example, garter stitch is knit every row in needle knitting and stockinette stitch is knit a row, purl a row. I find this confusing.
dawn7656 the final knit fabric in “garter stitch” for both needle and loom are the same thing. However needles turn every other row. On a loom it is ALWAYS on the Right Side. But needle worked “in the round” are all right side as well. So to make a garter stitch on needle in the round you have to work a purl every other row to get the garter stitch fabric. A loom just does the same whether a flat panel or in the round.
For stockinette a loom only needs to knit all the stitches.
To further clarify this please look at knitting charts. The chart symbols reflect what the fabric will look like. To work Wrong Side rows a needle knitted must look at the key and use the opposite stitch or the one spelled out as the wrong side row appropriate stitch. For a loom one simply works whatever is shown on the chart.
I hope that helps
Why does one side of my blanket ripple
It doesn’t seem wide enough for a baby blanket did I miss something important.?
cynthia rodriguez yes. You cast on all pegs and do not connect. Mine is just a small sample.
what do you mean do not connect? I didn't understand how to get a baby blanket out of this video. I am new to loom knitting.
On the cast on part (putting the first yarn on the loom) you will put it on all of the pegs. Stop on the last one and turn and work the other way.

When u state that you have to cast all pegs except last one. You lost me. Which link do you show the whole blanket being done??
Aurora Quinones you cast on all the pegs just like the first several. You can stop wherever you like. I suggested not the last one because you will work back and fort and the visual stop of not having a stitch on a peg helps many people to NOT connect the blanket at the ends there.

Hello, I was curious if I can use this tutorial with 3 different colors.
Oh ok thank you so much
Why are you not skipping your last pegs each time you turn other videos are skipping the 1st peg

Ugh ! Beginner here... sure wish video was showing a full baby size blanket being made instead of just a sample.. As a beginner I found it confusing...So off to look for beginner friendly baby blanket being made in full for me to try making...
Am I able to use just one color of yarn for this?
Yes! :)
cani just use one color?
Kimberly Helmick yes! 😁
You start it at like 15:00
How come you didn't use the loom to the end? I don't mean the opposite side but how come not to the end.
I just made a smaller sample for demonstration purposes. I didn’t need to make the full blanket to show how to do the main techniques.
@@GoodKnitKisses Oooh okay! thank you for explaining!
what happen to the baby blanket video it says loom knit garter stitch baby blanket ????
I made this blanket for my unborn baby girl. The bind off sucks! It pulled the top 4 rows so tight it distorted the blanket. Super disappointed 😭
Samantha Gillham you have to be much looser on the stitches as you bind off. The tension is your own in how tight you pull.
I was disappointed as well.
Mine did the same thing...I don’t suppose there’s a way to loosen it at this point?
Mine did the same, I was so upset, I ended up having to cut a few stitches and sewing it by hand just to have it loose like the rest of the blanket
The bind off does suck. I made my stitches loose and still made it curl upward. I’m going to try to add a border.
good
Loom knit baby blanket
This is so hard 😭
Fuck it I hate it tried it but no drawing is way better for me I hate the people who made it and I hate yarns and knitting and definitely hate crochet people i hate it I love drawing so ya good day.😂
