Easy Knit Baby or Lap Blanket Tutorial | Free Pattern (please read description 👇)

- In today's tutorial, I'm demonstrating how to knit the Easy Knit Baby or Lap Blanket - a cosy mat or cuddle throw featuring a bold, geometric chevron stitch. Use as few or as many colours as you like for your version!
FIRE WARNING: Regardless of the yarn recommended in this pattern as suitable for the item, for the safety of children, do not make blankets from yarns which burn readily. Care must be taken in a potential fire environment if your child's handknit is loose fitting. This blanket is not designed to be used as sleepwear.
Make sure you don't leave any long yarn tails on your project, as these can pose a strangulation hazard to babies. Once I had securely woven in my ends and blocked the blanket, I trimmed the excess yarn so the remaining length was nice and short. Take care to regularly remove any pills that may appear on your blanket, as these may pose a choking hazard if they are picked off by little ones.
WARNING: DO NOT use this blanket without adult supervision, or leave this blanket within a baby’s reach, as blankets can pose a suffocation hazard to babies or cause overheating. This blanket is NOT recommended for cot/crib use. Always seek expert advice regarding when and where, in what size and weight, and at what age a blanket is safe for your child!

I really love how you explain everything. It is absolutely clear and perfect!!
A thousand thank you’s. I have been trying to crochet the Chevron blanket but the yarn I am using wasn’t cooperating. Changing the pattern to a knitted Chevron will take me longer but the end result will definitely be less frustrating.
5 star video - verbal instructions were very clear and visual was excellent..... 👍👍👍👍🤞🤞
I have knitted for years and NOT ONCE have I ever heard of a two yarn cast on. Genius. Oh, all the times I could have used this 😂😂
Thank you!!
Yay! I've been trying to find a video like this one!😃👍
Thanks so much! 🙏🙏🌻
This cast on technique is as cool as the blanket. I don’t like guessing how long of a strand I need just to have to discover it’s too short, or I have a terribly long left over tail. Thank you so much.
Thank you Angie!! 💕 It's one of my favorites for a big number of cast on stitches - having to cut off excess tail or start again because you didn't leave enough is the worst!
Great tutorial, got to love reversible patterns when knitting blankets and scarves. I'd already started experimenting with k5, k2tog, k4, kfb repeated 5 times over 60 stitches to see what it looks like on 5mm needles using Noro Tsabame yarn. I'll use your pattern and larger needles to make a throw rug for my lounge in the same Noro yarn.
WONDERFUL 💕 My daughter in law is crocheting a ripple blanket & for fun I’m “trying” a knitted ripple 👍🥰 Thank you for making this a easy pattern 💕
This is one of the best tutorials for knitting a ripple blanket. I love the no holes look! 😊
It is precious! Very well explained and I love it.Thanks for sharing.🎉
the even side is done the same way, please I'm a beginner and I love this work
That two ball long tail cast on just blew my mind! Ws struggling with that exact cast-on issue over the weekend. I had abandoned the idea of making a baby gift but I might have to try your blanket now! :)
I'm so glad it was helpful! I can't estimate tail lengths to save the life of me, so I need it as a go-to option haha! If you've got access to some yarn, this is a pretty quick blanket to whip up :)
I am planning to make a big blanket. I will post it later. Thank you so much.😊
Very beautiful colours selected and easy explained. Thank you somuch for this amazing baby blanket. Love from INDIA
Thanks so much, this is exactly the pattern I was looking for!😊
Great long tail cast on!!! Awesome hack!!!
Thank you so much for doing it so slowly.I could get it right.🌹
Thank you so much for the tutorial!! Very easy to follow 😊
Takes away the hassle of calculating and guessing for the length of the long tail cast-on. Wonderful!
This pattern is so easy to remember and follow, just what I like.
The result is a beautifully shaped blanket. I love it! Thank you so much!
I love thick blankets that are fast to knit, so I will use a thicker yarn, a #5 (or 2 strands of a #4-Aran) and thicker needles, #13 or #15. That will make a chunky blanket in a shorter period of time.
Thank you for explaining everything great help when it came down to making it bigger or smaller didn’t have to do all the math 🤪 also seeing the effect of water on out yarn 🧶 awesome idea!
My pleasure Perla! Hope you've had fun with the blanket! ♥️

😊
Thanks for sharing. Now I know how to do it. And so clear tutorial.
I would really like to know why my chevrons are not so pointed and perfect. Thank you ever so much for your clear instructions and the final measurements. I am actually doing a blanket with the 119 stitches. I hope it turns out well.
please I would like to know the back of the work is the same as the front if I repeat what I do on the right I love this project and I'm starting
Thanks for sharing. You are amazing
My pleasure, you're so kind!! ♥️
Hi-great tutorial. I know that to adjust the size of the pattern you add (or subtract) 16 stitches per chevron. In the written pattern, what does it mean that it’s worked over multiple of 16 + 7? Are the 7 stitches already there if I start with 135 and add more chevrons? Just wondering at what point I have to worry about that 7! Thanks.
Thanks Mona! Yes the 7 has already been included, so you only need to worry about adding or removing multiples of 16 if you're starting with the provided cast on number of 135. We need that 7 for our edge stitches, and then the chevrons align over each multiple of 16. The minimum number of stitches the patterning will work over is 39 ((16 x 2) + 7), but from there you could have 55 stitches ((16 x 3) + 7), 71 stitches ((16 x 4) + 7), 87 stitches ((16 x 5) + 7), et cetera.
Thank you so much for the blanket tutorial very pretty easy and can beautiful
My pleasure, I'm so glad you like it!

Hi,I guess I don 't understand sth right or I have made a mistake...While kniting tge first row, starting the project,I had trouble with the knots...I knited reoeating the pattern of the knots (K11 ... K7) for 4 times and then when I was on the 5th time of the repetition,I had to suddenly stop without completing the pattern to end with the last 12 stitches....Is that right?Shouldn 't the pattern be repeated the 5th time too,before the 12 last stitches?
The instructions are for a 16 row repeat + 7 sts, the 7 sts are split between the garter edge stitches. So when you start each row there's a small 3-4 st garter edge then you go into pattern, when you're almost finished working the row your final 3-4 sts are actually your end point of the pattern and you're knitting your border on the last few again.
Thank you!I will try it again!Seeing the video and observing 5he pattern I understood that there must be come kind of border at the edges of each row,but the ending border had to start before the last stitches of the last "triangle"/"pyramid" (meaning this "up snd down" repetitive motif) and that is were I was a bit confused...That the motiv was not completed before ending the line...
Hello I'm curious if I wanted this wider would I cast on more stitches in icrement of 16 stitches + 7? And to make it longer would I just continue with more rows? Thank you I am planning to make this as a Christmas present and really appreciate the beautiful pattern.
Hi Mandy! Yes that's correct, I talk about how to adjust the size of the blanket at the 18min mark of the video. Hope you have fun with the pattern!
I can't wait to knit this lovely blanket!
Is there a reason why the first block has 21 rows and the others only 20?
Hi Aimee, sorry for my slow reply! Yes, that's because I used the long tail cast on method and I wanted the smooth side of the cast on to appear on the "right side" of the blanket. So I had to start with an extra "wrong side" row (making that first stripe 21 rows), and then did an even number of rows (20 rows) for every stripe after that to keep the neatest side of the colour changes on the "right side" of the blanket too. Let me know if that doesn't make sense!
I want to know how many points I have for the model multiples of
Seems a very easy pattern .will definitely try soon .
Just wanted to know,..why to start in circular needles ?it can be made in straight needles too ....
Hi Monika! You're absolutely right that you could knit this on straight needles too, but because the blanket is worked over a large number of stitches I think a circular needle is better. Choosing a circular needle with a decent cable length means that all your stitches will fit comfortably without risk they'll fall off the end of the row, and letting the cable rest in your lap also means that you don't need to hold as much weight in your arms as when stitches are on straight needles. Hope that makes sense, let me know if I can help any further!
I could not under stand at back kniting please teach me at the back needle stiches .iam waiting to do the back side.
I did try to follow your instructions in 18min mark for adjusting the stitches as per dimensions for my blanket requirements but I wasn't able to! Can you please help me by letting me know how many stitches should I start with if my blanket dimensions needs to be 70*90 (inches)
Hi ....kindly share sweater pattern for beginners
What is the multiple of stitches for the cast-on? It seems to me that it is 16 + 6, but I am not sure. I will have to go and take a look at her website for that since it is not in the tutorial
Buen día. Me encanta este tejido. Pero no lo entiendo muy bien. Lo hago muchas veces y no me sale. Saludos de Costa Rica
Question. After I ended with the 3, I need to restart with the 11 from the side in which I ended with 3 or the start with 11
The repetition of the report is difficult to remember. Once I knit 6 stitches and then 7 stitches. Can't I knit 6 every time? Does the knitting pattern then change?
Does it matter how many stitches you cast on at the beggining??? Sorry, I'm a beginner 🤷♀️😅
Hi Cassidy, thank you for your question! Yes, the cast on number matters as the stitch pattern relies on a multiple of 16 + 7 to work. Near the end of the video (~18 min mark) I discuss how you can adjust your cast on number if necessary 😊
Why if I started 11, at the next row I don't have 12. I am short one.
I must be really stupid because mine doesn't work when I turn the work around
Hello. Unlike the 39 stitch swatch the 135 isn't perfect in terms of the repeated stitches being completed out, instead there is always two left. What do I do with them or am I missing something? I've started over 7 times and about to throw in the towel because the swatch came out perfectly and thought the blanket would be the same but km really struggling. Please help
Did u find a solution?
I need to know where you buy the yarn and how much ply please. I would like to make this for my sister in law she’s pregnant
Hi AR, thank you for your question! For more details about the yarn I used, please visit the written pattern instructions here: thesweatercollective.com/2021/05/29/easy-knit-baby-blanket-pattern/
Plz tell me how many cost for baby blanket
Is there a wrong side & right side to this pattern?
,I wanted to kintt jacket how start
Thanks for tutorial ! But can I ask one thing? When I'm going to knit the last 12 sts, It will always be excess than 1 chains . Even though I always counted (I made 135 chains )
Hi Apisaranamfon, thanks for reaching out with your question! Something must've been missed in your patterning if you're ending up with 1 extra stitch at the end. When you do get to those last 12 stitches, are you working the first 2 of them as a k2tog?
@@TheSweaterCollective yes i did it .
@@apisaranamfonprompratum6514 hmmm, the only other thing I can suggest without seeing your work close up is to carefully check along your row and make sure you have the correct number of stitches between every increase and decrease. With 135 stitches, the patterning should definitely be working out as written. It might be worth casting on again and counting through the first row slowly if the missing stitch doesn't reveal itself.
@@TheSweaterCollective I will try . Thank you so much !!🤍
👍🏽
Just curious - what size (US) yarn is this?
Hi Ashley, it's Aran / 10ply yarn! The specific brand, yardages, etc. can be found in the written pattern instructions on my website 🙂

Counting out loud. Really?
Useful in a tutorial if you're knitting along and not looking directly at the video, kudos to her. Personally I do this when knitting too, it's a good way to iterate what you have done vs. what will be done, especially if you have lots of distractions around you and have a long repeat pattern to work.
