Hi snufflebean I’ve been knitting most of my life but fancied doing a blanket couldn’t make my mind up what to do. I watched your Arthur tutorial. Can I just say I think you are a wonderful teacher you are very clear and precise and you don’t talk down at all you are just so clear.

[@hebulanebula]

I love Arthur and totally agree ❤ knitting is therapeutic and should bring you joy😊the smaller size would make nice dinner placemats .

Placemats! Terrific idea!

[@josephinebrown7601]

So very comprehensively shown. Thank you.

[@westwardsongs]

I've been in a knitting rut for the last few years, and in those years my yarn stash has been growing exponentially. I'm so happy I found your video and this channel, this seems like a very pleasant, rhythmic blanket to ease myself back into fibrework. Thank you for your clear, concise directions!

[@marsha0714]

I’m not an experienced knitter but I think I can do this,I’ll give it a try

[@sandrarogers1200]

My dad passed away on the 22nd of June, so 2 days ago. His name was Arthur. He was 97 and one half years old.❤️

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I’m sorry for your loss, it sounds like he lived a long and wonderful life 🥰🥰🥰

[@JustFluffyQuiltingYarnCrafts]

Thank you for another easy and beautiful pattern. ❤ I was nervous when I heard 16-row repeat, but I should know that there would be easy rows included in that number. 😉

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yep! I’m never going to hit you with a super complex repeat, longer ones yep - but with easy rows thrown in. 🥰

[@JustFluffyQuiltingYarnCrafts]

♥️😍

[@folenaseenarine1158]

Beautiful

[@kayeeizenberg9318]

Very easy to follow instructions. I started mine on the weekend. Mine is going to be 1m x 1.2 m

[@misbahmalik6346]

Beautiful work,thanks a ton for sharing ❤

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you so much :-)

[@San-qy1lj]

Dear, this is amazing. I am an absolute beginner and trying to follow and understand your step-by-step. Why is it that your pattern starts on the wrong side? PLEASE let me know! I am about to start the pattern but I am on the right side. I made a bit of an adaptation of the model to introduce a second color. That is why the wrong and the right sides will look very different. Can I start it on the right side? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The pattern appears on the side of even numbered rows, so the first row always has to be a wrong side row

[@user-bo8xh1md3q]

Thank you so much 🙌

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re welcome! Happy knitting! 😀🧶

[@niksand1713]

Lovely

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you 🥰

[@juliebooton1360]

I love the Artur blanket and your interesting knit technique! I would love to knit a regular sized throw rug using this pattern. As a non knitter how would I size this up? Thank you for a very interesting and thorough video.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The written pattern has instructions on how to make it wider :)

[@sherylb9670]

Beautiful blanket, thank you. Are you knitting Norwegian style?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I knit continental with a Norwegian purl. My mum is from Finland and I learnt from her 🙂

[@nidiamedeiros1158]

Hi I’m making this baby blanket I Love how is coming

[@valrose242]

Thank you for this beautiful pattern. Id love to knit it but my arthritic hands can't knit in dk anymore. Would it please be possible to give me the pattern in chunky yarn please .

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You can just use the instructions in the written pattern and adjust your cast on and the number of repeats worked accordingly

[@TheJudyC1]

Can you knit this pattern with 4.5 mm needles and appropriate size yarn. And can you knit it with cotton yarn? Thank you!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yes absolutely! You might just need to adjust your stitch count if you still want the same size blanket. 😀🧶

[@katedejong9780]

Could you please tell me what kind of yarn you're using? Thank you so much for this tutorial and free pattern ❤

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I used Stylecraft Bambino, I can’t remember the exact shade name off the top of my head.

[@katedejong9780]

@@SnufflebeanYarn thank you for answering!!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It’s a pleasure! I would say I chose this yarn because it photographs well (stitch definition etc) but don’t feel tied to using it, any dk yarn will do 😀

[@nazlisaleem7141]

Hi please tell me how much wool required for thiss project

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The written pattern has all the details you need. It’s linked in the description 😀

[@jenniferwalling8981]

How much of a difference would it make if I dropped down to a 3.5 mm needle

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I don’t think it would make much difference, you could give it a go and see what you think.

[@jenniferwalling8981]

@SnufflebeanYarn I'm not worried so much about the height. I was more concerned with the width if I were to drop down a half size...I'll give it a go. Thank you so much

[@severus05]

great project! what would my stich count be if i wanted to turn this into a wash cloth?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It depends on the yarn and your tension, if you use the pattern multiple then you can adjust the size to suit.

[@2PeasInPod]

Instead of circular needles, can i use normal straight needles?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

They probably won’t be long enough to accommodate the stitches but you could try?

[@2PeasInPod]

Thank you 😊

[@dorisfeser362]

What size needles are you working with

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I work with 4mm needles and double knit yarn 😊

[@aliciabest-c8s]

Hello iI just wants to know if can you show and slow motion how make the stitch? I want to learn but I can get how you make the stitch, thank you very much and God bless you all 6

Hi! You might find it useful to take a look at this playlist Knitting Techniques kzbin.info/aero/PLSUtltyATEEr1J6lAddo1jruo70_YVrTD

[@fionarogers9568]

Would this baby blanket fit a cot

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yes I think so, you could make it marginally wider if you need to.

[@fionarogers9568]

@@SnufflebeanYarn thankyou

[@ChristinaHoughton]

I want to knit this blanket for my friends baby and want it to grow with them so as a beginner could you explain how to size this up to roughly 80x100 instead of 80x60 please 🙏🏼

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You just use the pattern multiple I describe in the introduction and add more stitches to your cast on, you will also need to work more repeats of the pattern to make it longer 🙂

[@ChristinaHoughton]

@@SnufflebeanYarn okay thank you I will try figuring it out ☺️

[@ChristinaHoughton]

@@SnufflebeanYarnI’m sorry if I’m bugging you but could you explain what the 8+4 means please? Is it 8 stitches for the border and each square is 4 stitches so I want to add more to my cast on in multiples of four?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

@ChristinaHoughton the border is completely separate from the pattern multiple I explain, you’ll cast on 18 stitches for the border and then the middle textured panel is a multiple of 8+4. So you cast on in a multiple of 8, add on 4 stitches, and then add on your 18 for the border. Hope that helps.

[@ChristinaHoughton]

@@SnufflebeanYarn ahhh I understand now thank you so much for answering I really appreciate it 😊

That's the most awkward way of purling I have ever seen.

How so?
