SKILL LEVEL: beginner.
NEEDLES: You will need 4.5mm (7 US) or 5mm (8 US) circular needles to craft this cozy blanket.
YARN: Use any worsted or aran weight yarn that falls within the range of 75-90 meters per 50g, ensuring it meets the required gauge specifications. Recommended yarns include Big Merino by Drops, Full by BBB Filati, or Bingo by Lana Grossa—each providing warmth and softness for your finished project.
ORIGINAL GAUGE: Aim for 16-20 stitches and 22-27 rows in a 10x10cm (4x4’’) swatch. The gauge range is intentionally broad because it’s not critical to match the gauge exactly for blanket projects. However, if your gauge falls outside of this specified range, we recommend switching to smaller or larger needles to achieve the desired results.
