You do a fabulous job of explaining each step, how you do it and so on. Wonderfully explicit and clear. I just wonder how much yarn to purchase, the yards and number of skeins, etc. Cm to inch conversion is not my strongest suit. Thanks for the awesome video.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Hi! So firstly thank you so much for the lovely comment 😀 Imperial measurements aren’t my strong point but for a rough guide 1 inch is about 2.5cm so you can divide my figures by 2.5 to get a rough estimate of size. I personally use an app called “amount” for conversions - it’s great! The yardage of the yarn I like to use is 262 yards per ball and I use roughly 3.5 balls for a blanket this size. Hope that helps 😀

[@robb9020]

Absolutely, thank you for clarifying. That will help a great deal when looking for yarn. I really appreciate reversible blankets!!

[@nidiamedeiros1158]

Hi, thanks for the tutorial. I would like to make this blanket using three different colours. Do you think I can? Can I just introduce the new colour straight after I complete the edge 9 stitches?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yes! Change colour on a same edge each time and you’ll get lovely neat colour changes.

[@shaoktahir2636]

Thank you :)

[@shaoktahir2636]

@@SnufflebeanYarnsorry, one more question! I need to make the blanket bigger because my yarn is thinner. Do the number of stitches matter - do they have to be a certain number, like odd?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Nope, this one is brilliant because you can literally cast on any number of stitches you like

[@shaoktahir2636]

@@SnufflebeanYarn Hi, when you knit the first nine stitches you then add a divider, you also knit the rest of the row, then add a divider before the last nine. If I were to change colour after the border shall I change it now, after I add the divider? It's a knit stitch.Or shall I change colour when I start purling on the next row? Thanks for your help! I want to have the border a dark grey, then the knit row will be light grey and the purl rows will be a creamy colour all the way to the border in the end.

[@shaoktahir2636]

Hi, do you know to add a different colour on the knitting pattern without making it look messy with all the extra yarn ends?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re never going to be able to avoid the ends when changing colour

[@cassandrakarpinski9416]

Can this be done with a varigated yarn (something like lion brand ferris wheel)

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yes of course it can 🤩

[@kaygalloway4315]

How do you know how long to leave your tail for casting on in the long tail method?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Nowadays I just guess and if I don’t get it right I either start again or chop off any excess. A rule of thumb tho is the tail needs to be 3 times as long as you want your cast on stitches to be 😀

[@TheKnock1out]

Hi can you tell me please is it knit one line of purl stitch then one line of knit alternating?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I have the a pattern with written instructions - you might find it useful to take a look at. It’s linked in the description 😀🧶

[@TheKnock1out]

@@SnufflebeanYarnthank you 😊 loving the work

[@marycassidy1695]

4mm is what US Size? it would be helpful if you could slip in US measurements as well as UK . Thanks

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Google tells me 4mm is a US size 6 🙂

[@hoppyb6113]

Do you sell that yarn.?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I don’t sell that exact yarn - but I sell one I actually prefer (I bought that yarn before I discovered a new favourite). The yarn I sell is King Cole Cherished 😀

[@billtheedom7778]

Can you knit this using straight needles? I’m very much a beginner and haven’t yet had the confidence to try circular needles yet. Thank you
