How to Hand Knit a Chunky Blanket

[@cyndimiller3569]

Just a helpful tip: No need to tie two yarns together. Simply leave a long tail on both skeins and continue to knit. The weaving will bind the two together. When done, just weave all of the loose ends and the blanket will be flat, with no bumps or knots. (Knots weaken the bond and can sometimes come undone too, leaving a hole). That's what I do when I crochet. Same thing, just different size. Beautiful blanket. Thank you for the tutorial. You did a great job! :)

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Thanks for the tip Cyndi! I’ve always tied knots in my knitting and crocheting - it’s just the way I was taught. I’ll have to try it the other way next time. Since this blanket has bigger loops and is a little bit of a looser stitch the thought of not doing knots makes me nervous since my 3 little kids love using the blanket, but I’m going to look into it! Thanks!

[@emilyjenson4343]

I was like hmm that feels wrong. So I checked the comments. Thank you

just wanted to say thank you for making this tutorial, I have made 3 blankets so far (2 gifts and one for myself) and I'm not a crafty person at all! This is a great tutorial!!

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Oh Siri, thank you so much for your comment! It made my day! I’m so glad you found the tutorial helpful. My goal was to inspire people just like you to try something a little crafty because I think we all have a little craftiness inside of us. Yay you for making 3 already!! 🙌🏼

[@2424goodguy]

Thank you so much for creating this knitting project. I just finished a beautiful white merino wool blanket for my granddaughter and I’m working on another for my daughter. My 85 year-old mother is motivated once again to knit. With her arthritis she is unable to do the fine motor movements of classic knitting, but hand knitting she can do easily. Thank you again. What a blessing you are! Susan

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Wow Susan! This made my day! Thank you so much for your sweet comment, and I love that your mother feels motivated to knit again!

[@sherwoodcosmohealthcare1694]

So I went out yesterday to our local craft store Michael’s and bought 12 skeins. Just finishing off the first blanket today for my son and will start on another blanket later today for a friend. Most likely I will go back and buy more yarn to make more blankets!! Thank-you for your very informative video! Love it!

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

I have now made two chunky blankets with NO previous experience. The first one took 4-1/2 hours, and the 2nd one took 2 or so hours. 5 skeins of the Bernat Big Blanket yarn make the perfect size!

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Yay! Way to go!!!

[@marylclc1269]

Excellent instructional! I've wanted to buy a chunky blanket for a long time, (they are expensive) but saw chunky yarn at Joanne's and decided to make one. I used to knit with knitting needles when I was younger, but I haven't done that in years. I had no idea how to make these only knew it was called "hand knitting." I watched your video and now I have a very good idea how to make my own chunky blanket. I will also make some for gifts for friends and family, if I'm not so klutzy that I destroy the yarn. With your instruction, I think I can do it! Thank you!

Jess L how long it took u to make it ? I’m sitting with my whool in my lap terrified to even start

[@JessLudlam]

@@joleejo82 It took me a couple hours. I had only brought 2 skeins not really knowing how big of a blanket it would make when I purchased them long ago. It made a small throw. After that I bought 4 skeins of a really fuzzy faux fur. I knew that would be way more challenging as it's harder to see what your doing with fur. That one I'm still working on and am half way through the process. I have adhd so I usually jump to random different projects suddenly or procrastinate forever.

This is so pretty, love it so much that i will be making my next blanket like this, but with much thinner wall/yarn

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

You're going to love it! Good luck!

[@carolynbrew3770]

Thank you for sharing with us..I am going to try this..as I am 60 and have horrible arthritis in my hands so I have a hard time knitting.. This maybe something I can do 💗

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Hi Carolyn! I hope you were able to hand knit without it making your arthritis any worse! I had someone else comment and say that arthritis has kept them from knitting with needles but they were able to hand knit just fine! Hope you had the same experience!

[@jenniferescobedo8096]

Watched many videos but none made me feel as comfortable and confident as this one.. thank you!

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Awe thank you so much! My goal was to make it a doable project for anyone! :)

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Awe yay! You’re so welcome! I’m so glad you found it helpful!

[@asumptuous1810]

Wow, amazing! I’m still trying to figure out how to knit with needles and crochet with a hook. For some reason this really clicked with me. I enjoyed watching your video so much & I can’t thank you enough for making & sharing this! I can’t wait to go buy the yarn! I’m so confident I can do this, thanks to you!! Beautiful work. Thank you!!!🌹

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Love this Video. This Tutorial is so very, very Helpful. Thank you so much!

You're so welcome!

I’m so glad I found your video! Good job you’re explaining everything so clearly and definitely making me want to try it out. I live in the Netherlands and just redid my room and thought a blanket like this would look great in it, but they’re sooo expensive! So this is a great solution. Just looking into where to buy which wool, since all stores are closed (corona 🤦‍♀️). I’m excited to try it out!

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Oh yay! I’m so glad you found the video helpful! I wish I was able to help you find the yarn! Also, just a heads up - the wool does shed. If you’re using mainly for decoration then it’s ok, but if you’re wanting to use it I’d recommend a non-wool yarn!

[@theoldandnaiveone4669]

Awesome...I just want some blankets for tossing over my lap and love this!!! I am not crafty but I think I can do this!

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

You can totally do this! No knitting experience required!

[@clarebear5559]

I wonder what it looks like now. Did it fall to pieces because the yarn looks so soft and loose, or did it felt up and go hard?

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

It definitely has not fallen into pieces but it has shed some.

[@egoisticflamingo5869]

ooh, just give it some time and that blanket is deadddd

[@mickeymouse2854]

@@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt Oh no! It shed? I would felt it up then. Spray it with water and put in in the dryer, I would watch a tutorial on felt ups if you dont know how to do one.

[@marikiemarie7622]

@@egoisticflamingo5869 thats not true. I've had mine for 6 years....

[@firestar5220]

@@marikiemarie7622 it depends what material you use, since she used really loose and unstructured roving in the video, it might fall apart or become thinner

[@sandy-mr5gj]

TY FOR excellent chunky blanket tutorial.

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

You are so welcome!

[@mybrownbeauty1324]

This was a great tutorial. For washing instructions do you just wash it on the gentle cycle and allow it to air dry or do you just spot clean it?

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

I would spot clean it, or hand wash it in the bathtub and hang to dry.

[@gloriaworthington7974]

That is super cute. Love it xs 3, looks so easy to do. Great instructions . Thanks

[@jamiecee4960]

Would love to make one of these. But that Yarn, is a bit pricey. But they sure are nice. They look so cozy and soft.

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

I’ve linked some other options in the description of the video. There is a yarn from Michaels that is more reasonably priced and doesn’t shed!

[@lotus0818]

LOVE IT!!! I am going to give it a try! Good job! Inspirational!

[@aliciaesson563]

Been watching she make it so easy

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

I’m so glad! That was my goal! 😊

So glad you liked it! ❤️❤️❤️

[@roulette9292]

I swear, the amount of patience required for something like this- I could never.

[@ShesCraftyandSheKnowsIt]

Lol I promise it isn’t that bad!

[@craftycrafter1960]

I’ve used a spool knitter to make a whole lot of yards of I-cord that ai am now going to hand knit ☺️
