Cozy Chunky Knit Blanket

Cozy Chunky Knit Blanket Pattern

Materials

• Chunky yarn (approximately 700 yards in soft grey)
• Size 15 (10 mm) knitting needles
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Gauge

12 stitches and 14 rows = 4 inches in garter stitch. Adjust needles if necessary to achieve correct gauge.

Abbreviations

• k - knit
• p - purl
• st(s) - stitch(es)
• BO - bind off
• CO - cast on

Instructions

Step 1: Casting On

CO 40 stitches using the long tail method. Ensure your tail is long enough for the entire project.

Step 2: Garter Stitch Pattern

Row 1: k across all stitches (this is the right side).

Row 2: k across all stitches (this is the wrong side).

Repeat Rows 1 and 2 until your blanket reaches approximately 60 inches long, or your desired length.

Step 3: Binding Off

Once the blanket reaches the desired length, BO all stitches. To BO, knit the first 2 stitches, then pull the first stitch over the second stitch and off the needle. Continue this across all stitches until you have one stitch left. Cut the yarn, leaving a 6-inch tail, and pull it through the last stitch to secure it.

Step 4: Finishing

Using a tapestry needle, weave in all loose ends. Make sure to hide the ends well so they don’t unravel.

Final Size

The finished blanket will measure approximately 48 inches wide by 60 inches long.

Care Instructions

Hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry to maintain the softness and shape of your chunky knit blanket.

Your Cozy Chunky Knit Blanket is now finished! Enjoy the warmth and comfort it brings to your home.
