The way this blanket is worked up to create the large cable knit texture means it doesn’t end up as wide as the other loop yarn blankets I’ve made.

Loopy yarn how to#
Seriously, the fact that you can get this sort of texture without even knowing how to knit is pretty amazing! Now, I’ve made a cable knit blanket from loop yarn before, and I love it, but this one is better! It has a chunky, oversized cable knit texture that looks like a giant sweater in blanket form. But I’ve said all this before (and if you’re a repeat reader you might even be tired of hearing about it).īut hey, I have officially made the prettiest thing yet with loop yarn! BEHOLD MY CREATION: the CHUNKY cable knit blanket:Īnyone else getting the idea that I’m pretty proud of this here blankie? 😂 It’s a crazy soft, machine washable yarn that has loops pre-sewn into it so you don’t need knitting needles or crochet hooks or the least bit of skill to work it up into a pretty blanket. It’s a suuuuper clever craft supply that makes it easy for anyone to knit…without having to actually learn how to knit. Hey all, I have waxed lyrical before about my love for loop yarn.
