Have fun learning to make your own chunky knit blanket! This DIY workshop teaches you the art of creating a cozy, soft and plush blanket with just your fingers. This is not arm knitting. Create something special that’ll make your home even more inviting, with yarn that’s perfect for cuddling up in. These can be whipped up in one day so are a perfect handmade gift.
Nov. 7th and Jan. 16th are held at Revival in Port Orchard.
Nov. 24th is held at Dream Maker Creative in Gig Harbor (Key Peninsula)
Yarn Options
New this year, you may supply your own or we can order for you.
Option A – Bring your own
You will need 3 lbs (1400g) of super jumbo (size 7) chenille yarn to make a roughly 3 foot x 4 foot lap blanket. KNITTING SIZE: US 50 (25 mm), 2.5 stitches – 2.5 rows = 4 inches, diameter = 3/4 inch. Do not get a larger diameter yarn. You may substitute other fibers, but pay attention to size and gauge as you may end up with not enough for your desired size of blanket.
Option B – We’ll buy for you (+ $45)
We’ve chosen a super plush chenille polyester yarn that matches the above specs. We’re including 3lbs of yarn which will make a roughly 3 foot x 4 foot lap blanket and you can order extra. Each additional skein will add roughly 1 foot x 2 foot to the finished size. With our yarn, most people finish 1/3 to 1/2 in class, maybe more. We buy in bulk and have it shipped which saves $ over local craft retailers. You may choose 1 or 2 colors and order additional yarn at $8 per skein (collected on day of class).
