PATTERN & MEASUREMENTS :)

I just made this blanket as my first knitting project. The first one came out not so good. I ended up with 92 stitches in the middle 😁. The 2nd one came out great! Do you have a pattern for a 12x12 pillow cover for beginners?
What length of cord you need?

I usually wing it after I do a test piece. (It’s got a name but it forget it)! When I first started knitting, I didn’t bother... I learned that I was doing myself a DISERVICE!! I save patterns and then use different kinds of yarn. IF you’re gonna do this, YOU MUST make a text piece. Different sized yarn will give you a different length blanket, scarf, etc... If you’re making a poncho or (if you get there) a sweater, knowing how many stitches per inch will help you to knit to the correct width, length, etc... cuz it SUCKS if you make something that is TOO SMALL or TOO BIG!!
So with all that said, knit yourself a test piece to see how many stitches per inch the yarn you’ve chosen will give you. Then you’ll know who many stitches to cast on!! Hope this helps...
what color lion brand wool did you use? Thank you
for the baby blanket
This is the first time I have fully grasped the concept of a purl stitch thank u very much...you make it look like crochet! Which makes my brain understand it better! Thank you again!!!
Getting ready to start on my second baby blanket using this video! I followed along with this video make my very first knitted item ever and it turned out great! Thanks for being so detailed and making it easy to understand :)
How relaxing it was watching this video. You're a blessing. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Thank you! I have been looking at patterns for my first baby blanket and I think this is going to be it now!
My daughter watched this video with me and now wants this blanket! Thanks so much for posting such great tutorials 🤗
Too bad we can’t post pictures on TH-cam I’ve knitted this gorgeous blanket with a much much smaller yarn in baby pink for my friend and it turned out GORGEOUS, embroided the baby’s name simply perfect. I gifted it to my friend and tears came to her eyes she was so moved.
Thank you for a great tutorial!!!!
Chloe Jacob I’m looking into doing something similar (thinner yarn and thinner needles). could you let me know how much yarn should used and how many extra stitches you made? Thank you :)
Hi!! Do you have social media or something to send me what yours looked like? I want to do this for a friend and embroider a quote on the blanket. I dont know if i can embroider on this blanket directly, or on another that i buy and then sew onto this one. How do i do it?
Just watched this and after finishing a project today I plan on casting this one on tomorrow. Great instructions thanks, wish me luck!
Great idea for changing yarn.
Thank you so much. This was very detailed. I like how you did the close up. And completed the entire blanket. Unlike other videos, they only do a sample. I’m going to try to knit my Godson a blanket while I’m quarantining during COVID19!!!
I love the way you explain! This is my first project in knit but the way you made was helpful!!! I like to see the next project!!!!
I knitted this with 2 baby yarns held together with seed stitch border.. it was beautiful.
This blanket is adorable!!! Thank you for sharing!!!! P.S your nails look great!!’
Thanks for the tutorial I am going to make this for my friends baby for Christmas
Wonderful!
Thank you for this tutorial. Very clear the instructions! Congratulations
Thanks for the tips of Knitting for the beginners. I remember my Grandmother used to knit clothes and Blankets back through my Childhood years. She already passed away time ago but I've not forgotten how much passion she was into this. I would like to try this technique especially I have a best friend who is having a Baby on the way in few months time! ☺🦯🙌🏼
So cute, so fast, so easy
Great job...
I’m so happy I found your channel. Your designs are beautiful and you teach so well. Thank you. Please keep making more videos- so inspiring 👍🏻
Yay! I'm so happy you like my videos!
Your nails are so pretty!
Guys, she knits the first 5 stitches on every row, and then she either knits one row (middle part) or purls it depending on what stitch she did last. BUT! i think she modified how she knits and purls. on the middlepart, where she knits, she goes in from the top of the stitch instead of the bottom, i think she does this because she purls different instead of a "Normal" purl stitch - but im not entirely sure.
Yes! She is using a mixed of normal knit stitch (border) and then Russian continetial style on the middle part (th-cam.com/video/gjRdy47-S38/w-d-xo.html) The reason why she does it like that is because it's the fastest way to purl BUT when you purl like that you end up turning/mirroring the stitches, so when she has to make a knit stitch she has to do it from the top, otherwise the tension will be insane and the outcome not that great :)
So when I get to the middle part or body of the blanket can I knit row 1 normally and purl the 2nd row normally too, or did u follow her style of knit and purl the way she did it? I’m so confused, mine is coming out nice so far but I don’t want to mess it up
Que bonita te quedo
Your voice is soothing🥰🥰
Love u r work, such a pretty blanket. Podrias mostrar cómo esconder el hilo o lana en los gorros cuando usas diferentes colores please? Mil gracias...
Thanks! Came out great
love it:)
This is so beautiful I wish I could knit!! 😍😍
Trish Bresolin You totally could knit! It might seem intimidating but once you get the process down it’s not as intimidating as it seems
@@savedbygracevlogs5994 😙😙
You can knit I learned 2 months ago just by watching TH-cam tutorials!!!! You CAN do it!!!
Trish Bresolin you can! You just need to learn. I’m trying to learn
@@ItzToca_Arii Maybe I'll try again this summer 🙂
Awesome tutorial
Thank you!
This would be cute for a doll blanket too.
So nice
The accent is the icing on the cake, perfect video
I love your video! I was wondering how many rows total (including the boarder) the blanket requires?
I just made your blanket! It’s perfect! What size crochet hook do I use to end this baby blanket?
💕
Thankyou you explain so easy what to do as my hearing isn't so good
I was looking for a blanket for to do for my Great Grandson due in June and came across your Fantastic tutorial and have Subcribed as I am just started knitting during 5he covid Pandemic The only problem I have I ONLY KNIT ON TWO NEEDLES
SO HOPE I CAN DO THIS ON THEM
CAN I USE DOUBLE KNIT WOOL AND HOW MUCH DO I NEED PLEASE XX
I only have 1 question please 😊🙏🏻.. are you just using only one roll of yarn? If not, how to add another roll of yarn into the stitches? 😊😊. I hope you notice 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Love this video and pattern!
I am a beginner with this being my 1st project. I am changing colors, but I am unsure how to do that with slipping the 1st stitch at the beginning of each row. Advice?
Hi. I love your pattern. I wanted to knit the border one color an the body another color. Could you show me how to do that. Thanks
Could you please show some other baby blankets patterns easy n cool
I will try to make more :)
I'm attempting to make this blanket but I have a smaller yarn than you used, and also have 180 stitches on 4mm straight needles. So I'm curious how many rows I should be doing of the garter stitch? Should it still be 8 rows?
I'm going to be using four colours and have already calculated how many rows of each colour I'd have to use alternatively.
Are the cable is for one side of the boarder only?
Hi do u know how to knit other blankets
I’m a little confused. Do I alternate the purl and garter stitch for the body of the blanket? I looked on the website and it only says “stitch”.
yes
Just so I’m clear. You only use Garter and purl stitch. Correct?
Please am a beginner and would love to knit a bigger blanket like a single bed size instead of a baby one using your pattern as it so easy to follow. What measurements do i need, OR can i double the number of the cast on stiches to get my desire size PLEASE HELP!!!
I did this for a friend's baby. They now need a second as a back up. She has to have it with her always.
Can u let me know for 2 yr old how many rows of border and body of the blanket should e done. Pls reply.Neeraja
So… knitting one row and purling the next row ? After the border that is☺️
Yes
Is knitting one row same as border
Hey, thankyou for the tutorial❤️ I have a question for you, can I use a Category 2/3 yarn instead of 6? Thankyou ❤️
You could but would have to chain a lot more stitches and knit more rows
How do you knit a short baby blanket? I don't knit, I'm just curious.
Are you using the continental knitting method in video?
She is, but i think she modified how she knits and purls. on the middlepart, where she knits, she goes in from the top of the stitch instead of the bottom, i think she does this because she purls different instead of a "Normal" purl stitch - but im not entirely sure.
Would the bernat blanket yarn work for this project, it's also a #6 weight.
AMBER TURK absolutely
Would worsted weight yarn work for this blanket?
It that yarn itchy at all?
Hi for adult blankets how many stitches do you need
Do you have this pattern available for crocheting?
Yay this is a great pattern
I'm knitting this to my cousin's new baby and it's nearly done I just have about 30 more rows
But I don't know what I wanna embroider on it
Can anyone reply and give me some cute but short things to put on it
My main favourites are
Cutest
And
Number 1
Maariya Uddin did you cast on 64 stitches? I just casted on and it looks tiny
@@jmurph1234 don't worry follow her exact instructions and it turns out beautifully
Btw I did cast on 64sts haha
Maariya Uddin it looks so small at 64!!!?
@@jmurph1234 don't worry!!! Trust me it will turn out looking great...how far along are you?
Maariya Uddin I’m also using smaller yarn maybe that’s why! About 20 rows in. Killing time with all this virus stuff going around. Have to keep busy!
What is the name of this color, please? I love it.
If we wanted to make the blanket a bit bigger could we cast on more stitches? or would that mess it up?
Angelica Moore, did you ever figure this out? Did you make a bigger blanket?
Hi Danii, I was wondering what the name of this color lion brand yarn you are using. Thank you.
I saw yr reply. I want some more clarification: I am from India, can u let me know the indian straight needle no. In India u dont get 8 ply wool. How many ply wool be needed for a 2..3 yr old baby boy? How many stitches to be needed to cast. Yr early reply awaited...Neeraja
How many stitches would it be for a 40x60 blanket??
What are the measurements of the blanket ?so I can make it with a different needles size
So basically every second row is all knit stitch for the body?
would it be possible to use a 12 mm set of needles for this instead since its just a size up?
Yes you could, just keep in mind that the blanket will turn out bigger :)
I am struggling to figure out how to go from knit stitch to purl stitch without ending up with holes in the blanket. What did you do to avoid this? Did you have to wrap your yarn around the front when you were purling and did you wrap it around the back when you were doing the knit stitch?
You wrap the yarn to the front and go in the front, then wen going back to knit but it back around the needle as normal
You need to practice this technique before you're attempting a blanket. Try it on a dish cloth square first and practice practice till you've got the hang of it
So I'm having troubles with adding in the markers because the yarn keeps wrapping around the marker and it makes a big whole after I finish. What do I do? Or what did I do wrong?
I recommend making a stitch marker from and different yarn colour, that will not create that problem! Hope this helps!
Ripudaman Bal yes it did thank you very much!
How do I fix it if I dropped the end stitch off the needle and now I’m left with a big loop at the end
I;m late to this and also knitting my first blanket, can you use normal knitting needles for this?
You could but they’re going to be really heavy
Great project for me to try! How long is the cable on the needles you used?
36 inches 😊
@@CJDesignblog thank you! I'm going to try tbis!
I'm not a knitter, I am a crocheter, but it appears to me that you could just loop the yarn over the hook and then slip stitch those last row loops inside each other starting on the other end of the row toward the yarn tail and use the tail to lpull all the way thru the last loop and be done. Sew the tail into the work. Voila!
It seems to me that's an awful lot of work if you're gonna be using a crochet hook anyway, why not just slip stitch? I understand that if you tried to slip stitch from the corner where you ended it would leave loose loops and it would look like you're missing a row ; that's why you would need to start at the other end, when done, clip your strand however long it needs to be and drag it thru and sew it in.
Casting off in knitting appears to me that the stitch looks the same as slip stitch in crochet.
May I ask what your gauge is? Thank you 😊
When I slip a stitch, it tangles! Help!
Donal border
good morning ,can you tell me please if all of the border is in the p stich ?
The border is all knit stitch. The body of the blanket is purl stitch
sweetthing213 she says second row is knit all across
How do I join the skeins?
What type of stitch is this?
How large is this blanket in the end?
24x24"
What are these type of needles called ?
Circular needles
can i make mor stiches please
How many yarn 🧶 did you use ???
Is it supposed to be purl one row knit one row then purl again??
yes
The pattern is you knit the first 5 stitches for the border then purl until you have 5 stitches, then knit the last 5 stitches.
how many balls of yarn will you need?
Can u let me know how many stitches i hv to cast for 2 yr old baby boy. Indian normal knitting needle which no. Should i use. Waiting for yr reply. I had asked u according to indian standerd which no. needle to be used for blanket.? In indis 8 ply wool not available how many ply wool can i buy for making a blanket I want to start making. Yr early reply will be appreciated. Neeraja
most likely around 100, maybe more
Hi l just did a practice and thought l would share 🙂 l cast on 140 stitches using DK/8ply yarn 🧶 and a 4mm/80cm circular needles (You could also use long straight needles too). It doesn’t really matter how many stitches you cast on as long as you knit the first 8 rows in garter stitch then on your 9th row you slip your first stitch, purl to your last 5 stitches then knit those. Row 10 you will slip the first stitch knit all stitches to the end. Row 11 same as row 9.
Tip: When your cast on thread is on the right side so you knit all the stitches. When it’s on the left you are on a wrong side and will be doing your purl row.
Hope this helps lm all new to knitting 🧶
@@lisamarsh2296 hi I'm using straight needles, and i casted the 64 stitches and Im starting the 80 rows. Im nervous because it looks really small.. is this becasue the yarn is scrunched up because its the straight needles vs circular? when its loose will it look much bigger? Im using 9 mm needles, should I have added more stiches if im using smaller needles?
thanks!
Everytime I change the stitch im doing a get a big gap as if I dropped a stitch. Does anyone know why?
It’s happens to me also…when I change type of stitch..especially with a plastic stitch marker…when going from Pearl to knit, I tug the yarn up and hold it more snugly with my left hand, slide it up more snugly on my right needle. . Learning consistent yarn control has been a challenge for me. Sometimes after a piece is blocked, the stitches relax and the changes are hardly noticeable.
Hi..Can you tell me how long is the needles you are using? The needles I purchased are too short
I believe they’re 20” or 22” :)
@@CJDesignblog thank you
What size needles did you use?
10 mm
How long does it take you (and everyone in the comments) to knit this style of baby blanket?
I hope this works😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬I said I will nit my grandmother a baby blanket for her dogs
Hi Danii
I love this pattern. I am a beginner and how many stiches Would I need if I want to make this blanket
a little bigger for a 6 to 12 month baby.
Please answer fast so I can get started as soon as possible.
Than you so much.
Maria
If this helps any even though it's so overdue, but I found it very helpful doubling the amount of rows so in total for the body she had 80 so add 80 more.
@@Manifezto do you still keep the border the same size?
@@6060rosie I would say add more to the border as well since we want to lengthen the blanket
@@Manifezto thank you. I will try and double everything up and see if it works out ok.
Size needles pls? and size blanket pls?
i’m making 5 but they aren’t for babies there for our fur babies lol
how many balls of yarn did you use?
4 🥰
@@CJDesignblog thanks
Can anyone explain how I get extra knits on the border? I think I may be having trouble switching from knit to purl. This is my first project.
Lacey jo I’m a beginner too... maybe you’re doing a yarn over? I was doing that. Make sure you move your working yarn to the back of your work when it’s a knit stitch and move your working yarn to the front for a purl stitch. I hope that helps!!!
Will a 31 inch cord work for this project?
Yes! I have 29in and completed this project twice with no problem!!
@@jonespink bless you for helping us! Dani never responded to the question of what length of cord do we use with our 10 mm or 15 US needles.
@@jonespink yes, thank you! I’m standing in the aisle of Joanns staring at the cord length options and couldn’t find that detail anywhere. 😆 It’ll be my first knit project other than a scarf so I had no idea how to guesstimate 🧶
I casted on 64 rows and it looks more like a baby doll blanket. Am i missing something?
Lol I’m wondering the same thing . Did you finish the blanket? If so how did it turn out ?
lasodra mcclendon ADD MORE. It was TEENY lmao!
Julia Castelot omg thank you so much ! I’m glad I only did 2 rows 😂
lasodra mcclendon until it looks big enough is my rule of thumb... good luck!
how many more stitches did you have to add? is it because you used smaller needles? Im using 9mm and mine looks so small, and im so far in!!
what if I'm knitting with a 9mm?
That should work too. You might end up with a slightly smaller blanket but I don’t think it would be a big difference:)
@@CJDesignblog thansk for replying! Im 16 rows in and for some reason it looks like a wave. It's garter stick purl stich garter purl. but i am doing purl in the middle like you said. Am i supposed to change the direction of something when i start a new row?
I’m confused, do you Pearl the 80 rows? Xx
It’s a stockinette stitch so you purl the first row then garter stitch the second. Alternate like that. Purl, garter, purl, garter, etc
R1 knit R2 purl R3 knit R4 purl etc for 80 ..if ur new at knitting don't watch her hands cuz she's using a few types of techniques
How can I do this with straight needles? I’m so confused lol!
I’ve just started this blanket and I’ve done it with long 6mm needles I recommend the longer needles to do this as short ones it falls off
@@emmabenn6394 did you cast 64 stiches with the 6mm needles? was the blanket still big? mine looks so small and i did it with 9 mm
