Oh The Places You'll Go Blanket PROJECT & TUTORIAL
I've been working on an "Oh the Places You'll Go" Blanket and I made up a simple hack to make the increases and rounds look beautiful and seamless! In the video I show you how to make the blanket from the start ... and there's a special treat at the end!
Yarn
I'm using 6 colours of Amano Yarns Chaski - the yarn is lovely but it's fingering weight and taking FOREVER to finish. I highly suggest using a thicker yarn than I did, the pattern uses a Worsted weight yarn and I recommend Berroco Modern Cotton (for a baby blanket you'll need 1 skein of each of 6 colours, for a throw you'll need two skeins of each colour, for something even larger try three skeins of each colour, and you may want/need an extra skein of yellow, that's the colour I used the most of/ran out of first):
I like the following colours of Berroco Modern Cotton for this project, but it;s really your preference and I've put together some colour combos for you (see pictures):
- Pink: 1622 Spinnaker
- Yellow: 1627 Del
- Blue: 1621 Warbler
- Orange: 1696 RISD
- Green: 1659 Elms
- Lilac: 1677 Bristol
Other Materials
- Locking Stitch Markers (I used 12 in a main colour, one in a contrast colour, and another odd one to help me keep an eye on things)
- 5mm/H crochet hook
- FREE Pattern
