Oh my goodness thank you SO much for this tutorial! I have looked at hundreds of other arm knitting things and they didn't make sense or were too hard. I have knitted so many blankets now, thank you so much!!!! ❤❤
I am left-handed and watching this video helped in more ways than you will ever know!!!!! God Bless you for being kind and brave enough to put this out on TH-cam!!!!!!
This is the best explanation of arm knitting that I have found anywhere! Thank you. I had a lot of questions in my mind about stitch size and the size of the finished product and you answered those. It is really nice to know the details and you cover them with your coffee cup analogy, how to stop and start again with a belt or yard stick, stitch measurements and everything. Thank you so much!
Very clear, straight to the point and goes at the perfect pace - thank you! Needed as a refresher as I was undoing mine (12 cast on) to make a square (16 cast on). Very pleased with the results :)
wow I forgot abt arm knitting, it's been years since I've done it & needed to refresh my memory on it & your video was so helpful & easy to understand! One of the best I've seen for a beginner to follow along & learn from! Thank you 😊
Hi, this looks great, tutorial has made it really easy to understand. Could you please tell me how many balls of wool I would need for a 2m x2m blanket please.
I just finished my first arm knitting project went into it almost completely blind, but it was successful thanks to this tutorial! It could not have been simpler and I am recommending it to all my friends who are now very jealous of my blanket. xx
Thank you so much, This is just wonderful help. I am using this to help as a tool for anxiety management for my clients and want to try it myself first. Your video will be of great service Globally to all as a coping skill for PTSD. One question - How to I switch in a new ball of yarn when one runs out. I know it is a beginner question but is there a certain knot so it does not show? Again, thank you and shine on!
Hi Lynne, Thank you for your kind words and I am glad you think my video will be helpful. I do have another video that shows you how to add in a new ball of yarn and you can find that here th-cam.com/video/16gDM-YPiQc/w-d-xo.html Happy knitting! Claire x
A very easily understandable tutorial! Thank you! If I wanted to, how would I "stitch" together or connect more than one of these completed blankets to make them bigger/wider?
I have never knitted but I have crocheted for years. I love the look of this blanket. I’m not sure how many skeins I will need nor do I know how many stitches I will need for my arm. I want a 60x90 for the end of my dil’s king size bed. Does that sound right? How would I use my arm? Help I do want to make these.
Thank you for this excellent and easy to follow explanation! I used it to knit an open weave net for my baby rats' cage to help break any falls while they're climbing! ♥️♥️
Great tutorial gives a lot of information it's not boring and even tells you measurements and how much yarn that you're going to need also offers help you really awesome thank you
Thank you so much for this beautiful and detailed video❤ Just started with Arm Knitting and for my first try it came out so beautiful! I will definitely be returning to this video as I keep practicing. Thank you once again xXx
I'm gonna try this out. Just found out about it and excited to try. I'm looking for how much would be needed for a blanket for a king size bed. Thank you great video.
this is a great and helpful video, thanks for sharing your expertise! I started my blanket! what do you recommend these blankets be used for, I did some research and it seems like this material needs to be dry cleaned, which can be a hassle sometimes. would you recommend this material for an everyday blanket?
How do you determine the size it will make? Based on how many you put on your arm? And if you’re making a large blanket how do you join two balls of wool together
Good morning, I allow 2.2 inches per stitch. So if I want a blanket 10 inches wide I cast on 10 sts. I have another video that shows you how to add another ball of yarn th-cam.com/video/16gDM-YPiQc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=F6Cl5JRveU1VLHhx
Hi there! I have never knitted before and I’m dying to try to make one of these things. I am caught between arm knitting, and Tunisian crocheting, but I think I’m gonna try this first. My question to you is if I want to make a sofa size blanket how do I do that? Of course your arm is not long enough to make a blanket wide enough, so am I making strips and then darning together?? thank you for the tutorial. It’s lovely to learn something new.
For a sofa I would make a 60” x 40” blanket. I allow 2.2” per st so you would cast on 18 sts. This is a very manageable size to put on your arms. I have had upto 30 but this wasn’t pleasant. Some of it is down to the size of your arms. My daughter is so thin her arms are straight up and down and she has no problem fitting in lots of sts versus myself whose arms are a little chunkier. Hope all of this is helpful? Xx
How many loops should I cast on to make a larger blanket? I casted on 24 and the blanket is not wide enough for my liking. Appreciate the help and the amazing easy to follow tutorial.
This is my first time arm knitting. I would like to knit a lap blanket for my mother to put over her legs (she is in a wheelchair) for when unannounced "company" comes by our home. As I said in my first comment your video has helped me so much because you start of with your left arm and..... I am working with "Loops & Threads" Ariel BIG! 20.5 yds/8.8 oz • 19 m/250 g. It is an acrylic yarn. I have 4 skeins and my mother used to own a shop here in our town and used to knit, yet at 88 years of age she cannot remember how to do the math to determine stitches per in., and so on. You video is fantastic, particularly for those of us who are natural lefties!!!!!! Helen
@@woolcouture1752 Thank you so very much!!!! Now I can make the conversion to American units.... :) I am a Chemist by edumacation so simple unit conversions are not a problem. I am really sailing on my first project, however, I am still using your tutorial ...running it forward then backing it up and so on and so forth......LOL :)
@@woolcouture1752 Thank you for your well wishes!!!! With all the doom and gloom you might be hearing from the fake media, most are dong well and for the most part doing what they please....LOL God Bless you and yours and keep His Angels with you......
thanks! I'm very new to knitting and got a bunch of wool that was a bit more complicated than I was ready for and nearly gave up, but your video helped me stick with it, and I managed to finish a baby blanket for my nephew AND a little armchair blanket in one morning! definitely seriously imperfect, but I'm really pleased!
That’s the downside to arm knitting it’s reliant on how many stitches you can get on your arms. My daughter has really thin arms compared to me and can get stitches all the way up to her elbows and hence can make bigger blankets than I can. Xx
You can always knit two or more separate parts to the blanket then sew the pieces together with the same yarn- I would look up ways to weave the yarn through to combine 😊
@@catherineboehm-delaney960 Hi Catherine, I allow 2.2inches per stitch for the blanket. So for example 22 inches will require 10sts. Personally the largest I have ever made using this technique is with around 28sts. I would always buy the yarn in one continuous length rather than adding to it. Claire x
This type of arm knitting is only suitable for the amount of sts you can get on your arms. I have had a max of 30, but I wouldn’t recommend this amount. I find 20sts is an optimum amount and you get a good size blanket with this as well. Xx
Hi Sandra, I have another video in my collection that shows you how to change colours. Here’s the one your looking for: th-cam.com/video/16gDM-YPiQc/w-d-xo.html happy knitting 🤍
Yes thank you…how amazing!!!… so glad I found this new craft… and so glad I found YOU!!! … You are an amazing instructor!🤗💖 SUBSCRIBED!!! Now I’m eager to make a baby blanket… how many stitches would you suggest I cast on???
I have made blankets by putting lots of strands of thinner yarns together and then using this technique. It’s a bit of trial and error to get the rights amount of strands. But give it a go. It’s fun! Xx
U hava wonderful tone and manor of speaking, iv bn researching knitting videos awhile now and i like this one best, im sure ur tutorial wrx best 4me, so im gonna givit a try, going too purchase my yarn & I'll bbck 💪🏼👍🏼 💃
Hi thank you for your brilliant video. Can you tell us what sort of wool your using and how much does a ball cost . You can't run out of wool half way through so how big a ball would I need for a small single blanket please
Are there any suppliers of a less expensive yarn you would recommend for this? I’d really love to make an arm chair blanket but can’t afford the merino. Thank you x
It does naturally shed and I tend to pull the bits off. A bit like when you have a pure wool jumper. Also when I have made a blanket I put it over a washing line and mist the blanket with a squirty bottle and let it dry. This seems to reduce the shedding. This will only work with 100% wool like our epic extreme. Xx
Hi Claire. Loved your video. Would love to try and have watched some other videos that knit putting yarn of stitches onto the floor. I guess this is an easier method? Where can I buy the yarn? Thank you
You can find the amounts I use for different blankets on this listing: www.woolcouturecompany.com/collections/our-yarns-shop-all/products/epic-extreme-yarn?variant=40889814188201
Can you show me how you FINISH the blanket...my stitches looked loose when i ran out of yarn...didnt know what to do next...how to close it off/finish it thanks.
Very clear instructions! Cannot find your email address. I have not tried this yet but want to make a chunky baby blanket. How many stitches do I cast on for the width and how many stitches for the length. Thank you!
Hi - I would like to do one of these blankets to make a full size blanket for a king size bed - would you recommend this and how many stitches would you recommend? Thanks!
Ok I did it! It looks great too but I see how to tie off the working yarn but how about the tail end (non working yarn) how do we do that since it is already has the knot but is still hanging down. Do we tie that off again or just thread it through the ends?
Wool Couture thank you very much! Loved this video. Where do you get your merino wool. The merino wool I bought on Amazon seems very stringy in parts and even though I did the felting in the washing machine recommended by becoming those stringy parts did not felt well.
do these blankets usually shed a lot? Or does it depend on the quality of yarn you get. I saw one at someone's house and there was a whole cat worth of lint on their sofa from it.
New to this, whats the name of the wool? And how much would you need for a double blanket? Also if anyone knows where i can buy the wool to deliver in the uk, that would be helpful
@@woolcouture1752 thanks for the reply, I saw your way of calculating it and I got 18 too. Just wanted to say thanks, because I've almost finished it. I started at 11am and there's just a little bit left to go and the whole 4kg ball will be done. I've only ever knitted socks and scarfs conventionally so thanks so much for this! It's my fiancée's birthday present!
Hi Paula, This technique can only be used with the amount of stitches you can comfortably get on your arms. For example my daughter having very thin, straight arms can get a lot more stitches on than I can. Claire x
This is our epic extreme. You can find it here: www.woolcouturecompany.com/collections/our-yarns-shop-all/products/epic-extreme-yarn?variant=40889814188201

Ok I did it! It looks great too but I see how to tie off the working yarn but how about the tail end (non working yarn) how do we do that since it is already has the knot but is still hanging down. Do we tie that off again or just thread it through the ends?

do these blankets usually shed a lot? Or does it depend on the quality of yarn you get. I saw one at someone's house and there was a whole cat worth of lint on their sofa from it.
How many stitches are needed for the armchair blanket? Love this video!
New to this, whats the name of the wool? And how much would you need for a double blanket? Also if anyone knows where i can buy the wool to deliver in the uk, that would be helpful
@@woolcouture1752 thankyou, do you guys deliver?
@@woolcouture1752 thankyou, i did take a look at your website, and love the look of your products, but couldnt see an option for delivery
You talked about 40"*60" 4kgs double bed blanket, how many rows should I cast on for this please?
@@woolcouture1752 thanks for the reply, I saw your way of calculating it and I got 18 too. Just wanted to say thanks, because I've almost finished it. I started at 11am and there's just a little bit left to go and the whole 4kg ball will be done. I've only ever knitted socks and scarfs conventionally so thanks so much for this! It's my fiancée's birthday present!
Where do you purchase your yarn from? The yarn in my local fabric store is not this large.
So cool! Gréât instructions!! Thank you!
You are so welcome!

Where do you buy your wool?
What if I want to get 50 by 40 and I cant get 20 on my arm?
Hi Paula,
This technique can only be used with the amount of stitches you can comfortably get on your arms. For example my daughter having very thin, straight arms can get a lot more stitches on than I can. Claire x
where is the yarn from? what’s it called?
This is our epic extreme. You can find it here: www.woolcouturecompany.com/collections/our-yarns-shop-all/products/epic-extreme-yarn?variant=40889814188201
How much of this do you need to make a blanket a large one?
@@woolcouture1752 thank you 😊
This was incredibly thorough!! Thanks a million!! P.s I love your accent and could listen to you all day!! Will I get a similar affect using cotton wrapped fiber yarn?
