Which yarn is right for a blanket?
Medium to chunky yarns are ideal for blankets: they’re warm, and the piece grows faster. With 4 to 8 mm needles, you’ll make good progress even on large blankets. Alpaca adds warmth, while wool and acrylic add shape and easy care.
Knit or crochet
You can knit or crochet with all of these yarns – for cozy throws, baby blankets, granny squares, or pillows. With gradient yarn, the pattern creates itself.
How much yarn do I need?
