#Loopy yarn blanket how to#

So let’s get to how to make this easy, no-knit blanket!īelow, you’ll see my video tutorial.

It was fun to change colors and see how the blanket developed into the rainbow. This was something that we could work on together for a while, then set it down to work on the next day. Go with whichever colors your little one likes best! Of course, purple and pink stripes would be super fun for a girl. While Emilia loves the rainbow, maybe your boy loves blue and green. She’s very particular! It’s really fun to let your baby pick the colors that they like and go for it.

Like I mentioned previously, she chose to make it in all the colors of the rainbow (and in the correct order of all the colors of the rainbow). Little Blanket for doll or stuffed animal.Toss pillow (just make two squares, stuff and seam).Boo!)Īnd while we decided to make a blanket which is a fairly big project, there are so many small things you could make as well! Other ideas we had were: It’ll be really nice to take the the pool as well and if you’re lucky enough to be near a beach, it would make a lovely beach mat. I can’t tell you how much my girl loves her new blankie! She currently has it on her bed and will be using it all summer long for picnics. It’s also machine washable and dryable making it perfectly suited to use on your outdoor adventures. The yarn is soft and squishy as can be, which of course creates a squishy soft blanket.

You might remember the Native Stripes Knit Blanket or the Modern Camp Blanket, both of which I made for my girl and both of which are BRIGHT! Anyhoo, you can see a full, picture tutorial as well as a video tutorial below to help you make this blanket. If you follow my blog, you know it’s rare to see a lot of bright color here! Ha! But when it comes to kids, they love bright. And if your kiddo likes different colors, it’s easy to mix and match whatever colors he or she likes best. It was simple enough for my baby girl to help make it and it was fun for me too!Īs a mama to a little one, let me tell you, most little kids love rainbows! This blanket is great for boys or girls and they will have a ball helping to make it. 🙂 The Lion Brand Crayola Off The Hook Yarn (here) makes it easy to create a knit-look blanket without the need for a single knitting or crochet skill. This is such a fun blanket and guess what….I didn’t design it! The idea for this blanket came straight from my seven year old daughter.
