  1. Love this blanket .TFS

  2. Iris Jusino

    This is a question.can I make this blanket on the 28inch AIO loom oppose to stitching them together? I would like to make a larger blanket for my new granddaughter coming in July.

    1. Denice Johnson

      Yes this blanket can be made on the All-in-One loom. This blanket pattern was made for the Rotating Double Knit Loom so you could see what other projects possibilities could be done.

  3. Paula Doney

    Can you do this blanket with casting on 52 pegs working as a flat panel? Also, can I use weight 3 to do blanket or will it be too small of a weight? Thanks Denice. Your videos are great!

    1. Denice Johnson

      The pattern is wrote with the maximum amount of pegs that can be used on this loom. If you decided to go with a thinner weight yarn it would be to lacy of this project.

  4. My question is, after I have done the E wrap cast on, for Row 1(Purl) am I going counterclockwise for that first row and then row two is clockwise? Love the pattern, it’s my first time using the double rotating loom. Thanks in advance for your time.

    1. Denice Johnson

      The pattern is worked as a flat panel. You work back and forth.

  5. On Row 16 and Row 18 can you tell me how to read the pattern?
    Is it meant to be that the instructions in parenthesis are the repeating portion of the those rows?
    Or should I be repeating the entire line after I do the ew3 on Row 16 and ew1 on Row 18
