Yarn from "Valery" see here http://valeri.me/catalog Children's knitted blanket and booties from YarnArt Dolce yarn. In order to knit a plush blanket with knitting needles 80x90 cm in size and booties 0-6 months old, we need 3 skeins of mint-colored yarn and 2 skeins of white YarnArt Dolce (100% micropolyester, yarn yardage 115m 50g). For the soles for booties, we need 20 grams of plain white yarn. Needles number 4 and hook number 3. DESCRIPTION OF KNITTING A CHILDREN'S PLAID AND BOOTS FROM YARN YarnArt Dolce. On the knitting needles with mint-colored yarn, we collect 75 loops and knit straight without increases and decreases with the front stitch (front rows - front loops, purl rows - purl loops). You can adjust the length and width of the blanket yourself, in my case I stopped at a height of 70 cm (the remaining 10 cm we will have a harness). We knit the finished fabric knitted with knitting needles. We make the first row of strapping with white yarn. Along the edge of the canvas, we formed arches of loops. In the first arch we knit 5 double crochets, skip the next arch and knit a single crochet in the third, skip 4 and knit 5 double crochets in 5, skip the next arch. And so in width we got 24 arches of 5 double crochets, and 20 arches in length. We continue the second row of strapping in white. In the formed corners of the plaid we knit 2 arches, each consists of 5 double crochets. Thus, we have increased one arch in each side. We finish the last row of strapping with mint-colored yarn. In the corners we knit one arch, which consists of 8 double crochets. Plaid is ready. It remains to hide the knots and wash. Description of knitting plush booties: booties are fully crocheted. for the sole, we take ordinary yarn and knit according to the scheme 2 identical parts. Next, we take mint-colored plush yarn and knit bumps (3 double crochets with one top) in a circle in every second loop of the base, between the bumps we make an air loop. Total in the first row 25 bumps. The next row of white yarn we knit another row with bumps, only already in air loops. We mentally divide the booties in half and knit the toe of the booties in turning rows. The first row is 14 bumps but without air loops, 2 rows through one bump of the previous row, we knit 7 pieces. On the wrong side, we connect the resulting edges with connecting posts. Now, in a circle, we also knit the upper part of the booties with white yarn with bumps without air loops. For me, it consists of 16 bumps, 3 rows of white yarn in height and the final row of mint-colored yarn. In order for the booties to keep well on the leg, I tied the lace with ordinary air loops. Inserted between the bumps in the first row of the upper part. We finish the second bootie in the same way.

A blanket made from pre-purchased thick Merino yarn is a fairly popular and common warm type of blanket for the home. This unusual and soft yarn will make even the most ordinary and simple knit blanket unique and elegant.

We knit a warm blanket of thick yarn with our own hands with patterns

A plaid knitted from large giant yarn will be a wonderful and elegant addition to any interior and space. When making such a cozy large accessory using a special large yarn, it will take very little time.

Merino yarn is a special yarn made from the wool of Merino sheep. This sheep's wool is distinguished by its unique softness and very high quality in use. Products made from such merino yarn are lightweight and at the same time have very good heat-retaining properties.

Depending on the diameter of the threads, merino yarn is divided into several types and types: wide, medium, thin, very thin, extra thin.

Merino sheep wool is very often used in the manufacture of sportswear, as it perfectly absorbs and removes moisture that falls on it. This yarn is also very popular in the manufacture of clothing for everyday use.

Items made from merino wool can be washed easily. However, some care should be taken not to subject the products to excessive spinning in the washing machine drum.

Before you start making a knitted blanket, think over all the necessary nuances. First, decide on the desired yarn color. Look at the interior of the room where you plan to place your throw in the future. The finished knitted product can harmonize in color with the curtains, pillows or carpet in the room.

It is also important to determine the size of your knitted blanket. For a chair, you can knit a blanket with dimensions of 130 by 170 centimeters, for a small sofa - 150 by 200 centimeters, for a crib - 170 by 240 centimeters, and for a double bed - 240 by 260 centimeters.

You can knit a blanket from large yarn with your own hands both with knitting needles and crochet. Choose the tool that you are best at, as this process is very laborious.

We bring to your attention a small and affordable master class on making a blanket with your own hands from fashionable and popular Merino yarn. Thanks to the description provided, you will be able to create a blanket with a coarse knit and a large perimeter.

Before starting all the work on making a warm accessory for home evenings, prepare all the material and tools you need:

  • Knitting needles or hook of large size and diameter;
  • Lots of merino yarn.

If you do not have large knitting needles at home, then you can easily replace them with PVC pipes or with your hands. Such a large and unusual merino yarn can be knitted even on the hands, and not with knitting needles.

First, lay out the merino yarn on the table. Take one end of the yarn and make a small loop. After this manipulation, put another loop on top, but place it a little to the left of the previous one. You should end up with a figure that resembles a pretzel cookie in shape. Now thread your knitting needle through the first loop of the pretzel. Then pull the yarn tightly on the working needle.

Now, using a crochet hook, knit an ordinary chain of air loops. All subsequent rows of your knitting should be knitted with a chain of air loops. However, the working hook should be threaded through the bottom row of knitting.

To make a warm and fashionable blanket with dimensions of one hundred by seventy-five centimeters, you will need about three kilograms of merino yarn. For a warm accessory measuring two hundred by two hundred centimeters, it will take up to about seven kilograms of merino yarn.

If you do not want to form your knitted product with a hook, then use large knitting needles in your work. In their absence, PVC pipes with a suitable diameter will perfectly replace them, or simply form a knitted blanket on your hands.

Such an unusual and fashionable knitted blanket in recent years will be a great gift for you or for a person close and dear to you.

You just need to choose the appropriate one from several options for knitting simple blankets and go for it!

Schemes and description of knitting a plaid with knitting needles

The choice of models of blankets, as well as patterns, and ways to knit them, is huge. It is also worth paying attention to whether a warm bedspread is knitted for adults, or still for children - after all, this is also an important criterion for selecting yarn and patterns. For the smallest, blankets must be knitted according to certain rules - we will definitely tell you about them. In general, this is a whole art - to knit a good blanket. Let's try to figure it out and consider both the easiest knitting master classes and more intricate options for knitting plaids.

Master class for beginners


Beginning knitters should definitely start by learning the most understandable and simple options for knitting blankets. Consider a master class for beginners on knitting a plaid with knitting needles.

This blanket is perfect for newborns or adults. The blanket is pleasant, gentle and soft. And it will not be difficult to knit it with knitting needles because of the knitting method taken as the basis: a simple double-sided pattern of front and back loops, as well as for the edge of the product.

  • What you need

Yarn:"Svetlana" production "Semenovskaya Yarn", 250 m / 100 g, 50% wool, 50% acrylic.
Yarn consumption: 350 g.
Tools: circular knitting needles No. 3, knitting needle.
Knitting density: main knitting Pg \u003d 2.25 loops in 1 cm, Pv \u003d 3.2; garter stitch Pg \u003d 2.14 loops in cm, Pv \u003d 4.3 rows in 1 cm.

  • Counting loops

To calculate the number of loops that you need to dial on the knitting needles for knitting a plaid, you need to determine the knitting density of the main and garter stitches. Learn more about how to determine knitting density.

When calculating the loops, we must take into account the desired size of the product and the pattern repeat. As for the size, the standard size of a baby diaper is 80 x 80 cm, we will focus on it. We need the pattern on the plaid to be symmetrical. Therefore, you need to add loops to the whole rapports for the symmetry of the pattern. You also need to take into account the width of the slats along the edge of the blanket. We will knit strips 2.5 cm wide, these are 7 loops (including the edge). This means that we need to knit 80 - 6 = 74 cm with the main knit. One rapport of the main pattern is 18 loops or 8 cm. For symmetry, we need to add half a rapport, i.e. 9 loops or 4 cm. It turns out that for whole rapports accounts for 74 - 4 \u003d 70 cm. Let's determine the number of whole rapports: 70: 8 \u003d 8.75, rounded to the nearest integer, we get 9 rapports. So, number of loops of the main knitting:

9 (the number of whole rapports) x 18 (the number of loops in the rapport) + 9 (the number of loops for the symmetry of the pattern) +7 (the number of loops for one plank) x 2 = 185 loops.

But we know that the knitting density (Pg) of the finishing garter stitch is less than the main one. So, so that the bar on the bottom is not too loose and does not look stretched, we need to recalculate the loops.

Let's specify the final size of the blanket: 185 (number of loops) x 2.25 (Pg of the main knit) = 82 cm.

Now let's define how many stitches to cast on the needles:

82 (piece size) x 2.14 (pg garter stitch) = 175 loops.

  • Main pattern

Double-sided pattern "cage" of front and back loops with a relief texture. Pattern repeat: 18 stitches wide, 24 rows long. To knit a pattern sample, the number of loops is a multiple of 18 plus 2 edge loops on the knitting needles.

Scheme and description:


- classic front loop in the front row, unless otherwise indicated in the description of the pattern. In the purl row, the purl loop is indicated as such.

- classic purl in the front row, unless otherwise indicated in the text. In the purl row, this is the front loop.

1st, 3rd, 9th, 11th row: * 9 facial, 9 purl *;

All purl (even) rows are knit according to the pattern;

5th, 7th row: * 3 facial, 3 purl *;

13th, 15th, 21st, 23rd row: * 9 purl, 9 facial *;

17th, 19th row: * 3 purl, 3 facial *.

The pattern is repeated from the 1st to the 24th row.

  • Progress

We collect 175 loops on the knitting needles in the main way and knit 11 rows of garter stitch. We will arrange the edge a little differently than usual: we will not remove the first loop in the row, but we will knit the front loop behind the back wall.



Fig. 1: The working thread is wound down and back. Fig. 2: The loop is knitted behind the back wall of the front

We knit the last loop in the row as usual, with the front loop.

In this case, the edge of the edge will stretch more. Considering that the horizontal knit density (Pg) of the main knit is less than the finishing one, this will allow the bar to stretch and compensate for the difference.

If the density of knitting of the main and finishing knitting differs significantly, we recommend knitting the bar in short rows.

In the 11th row we will make straight crochets to add loops. We make additions evenly. We knit 11 loops (including the edge), make a straight yarn over, and then we make yarn over after 18 loops (pattern repeat). In total, 10 crochets will be obtained along the length of the part. In the next row, go to the main pattern. At the beginning and end of the row, we knit 7 loops in garter stitch and then with the main pattern. We knit the yarn over the back wall, without openwork, so that the addition is invisible.

In order for the plaid to turn out to be square in height, we need to knit 11 rapports (264 rows) with the main pattern. In the last row we decrease 10 loops in the same places where we added, knitting two loops together with a slope to the left. We knit the bar and close the row in the classic way.


Newborn product


It is very important and responsible business to knit a plaid with knitting needles for a newborn. Whether it is a gift to a family of loved ones or to yourself for the baby's first birthday, there are several important points to consider when knitting the first warm blanket in a baby's life.

When choosing yarn for knitted children's items, you should pay attention to the composition: it is better to choose yarn where there is wool with a part of acrylic, or merino wool, or baby alpaca with microfiber. Be sure to make sure that the threads do not prick the skin, even if the label says that the yarn is intended for knitting children's things.

Let's try to knit another easy-to-make plaid that a beginner can do. And they will help to knit a blanket for a newborn with knitting needles and a detailed description.
