SUPPLIES & TOOLS:

  • LION BRAND® OFF THE HOOK - Lemon Drop 3 balls
SIZE:
About 22 x 27 in. (56 x 68.5 cm)

DIRECTIONS:

BLANKIE:
Set up:
Pull out one end of yarn and count out 37 loops. You'll be working on just 35 loops. This length of 35 loops will be the beginning of your Blankie, the other 2 loops are the beginning yarn tail and will be secured later.
Check to be sure that all loops are facing upwards and that loops aren't twisted.
Lay this length of 37 loops onto a flat surface, with the end of the yarn on your left hand side.

Make your Blankie:
Now you'll be working in rows across the length of loops.

Tip:
This yarn is designed so that the loops stay in place - you can set the Blankie down at any point and the loops won't come undone!

The yarn that's coming from the yarn ball is called the working yarn.
Hold the working yarn behind the length of loops.
With your thumb and index finger, reach through the first loop (37th loop from the end) on the beginning of your Blankie.
Pull the next loop from the working yarn through the first loop.
Working across the length of loops from right to left, continue to pull the next loop of working yarn through the next loop on the Blankie until you've pulled up 35 loops - and have 2 loops remaining for the yarn end.
You'll work the second row in the same way as the first row, but working from left to right to pull up a loop of working yarn in each of the 35 loops on the Blankie.

For the third row, continue pulling up loops of the working yarn, this time working from right to left.
Continue to work back and forth in rows across 35 loops until almost all of the first ball of yarn has been used AND you're at the end of a row. If needed, trim the yarn tail of yarn A to about 2-3 loops, and leave this yarn tail hanging.
To start a new ball of yarn, leave 2-3 loops of the new ball hanging, then then begin the next row of the Blankie, using the new ball of yarn as the working yarn.
Stop working with the last ball of yarn when you're at the end of a row and you don't have enough of the working yarn remaining to do another row.

Finish your Blankie:
Now you'll need to finish off your loops. Drop the working yarn.
Working in the same direction as the last row you made, pull the second loop through the first; pull the third loop through the second; pull the fourth through the third - and so on around until all the loops have been finished off.
Now you're back at the side with working yarn. Pull working yarn through the last loop and knot.
Carefully snip the remaining loops from each yarn tail. Just snip the loops off, don't cut through the yarn! Pull each of the trimmed tails through the loops of the Blankie to secure them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I did it! My mom bought some of this yarn for my 11yo brother and I to make baby blankets (I'm 9). We had to restart several times before we really got the hang of it, but once we understood the instructions and started being very careful not to miss any loops, it went much quicker. This was such a cool way to quickly make a baby blanket!
