This pattern is written so you can use any loom gauge you would like just so long as you have 10 pegs. I would suggest for big blanket size using a zippy loom, or do the 2 peg as 1 technique.
There is a bit to keep up with but has a full video tutorial, it isn’t my best as I am in the middle of a separation and don’t have a consistent place to work. The written instructions will help along with photo tutorials of the terminology used in the pattern.
I used most of a large skein of the Bernat Blanket Yarn but would suggest 2 skeins to be safe.
You will need stitch markers to make this pattern a lot easier to do, about 9 to be exact.
Just contact me if you run into any questions with this pattern.
