the blanket sizes

 

It’s time to start filling in your Progress Worksheet! Go to “the blanket size I’m making” and fill in the width and height with the info from down below.

The Hug Blanket pattern covers 7 blanket sizes:

The width is measured across the bed (and along the row) and the height is from the base to the head of the bed (and is the measurement of all the rows).

Because of the weight and stretchiness of this blanket, the sizes and gauge are indicators only. It’s handy to measure your Hug Blanket after row 5 to check it’s the width that you want.

 

The Hug Blanket below is the Little Snuggles size and it’s made with Natural Homelea Hug.

 

how to make a different size

Making a different sized Hug Blanket is easy. Here are a few different ways to do it:

  • increase or decrease the number of stitches in the foundation chain, or
  • increase or decrease the number of rows, or
  • change the size of your yarn to change both the width and height.

 

gauge / tension in the centre

  • 4 stitches in 0.35m (14in)
  • 5 rows in 0.35m (14in)
