This quick and cozy blanket is knit in garter stitch in the Shetland style with a centre rectangle and then subsequent rows worked around that. You will need 800 metres (885 yards) of super bulky weight yarn. You can use Blanket as I did or any worsted weight yarn held double, which will double the amount of yardage that you need, of course. You will need 10 or 12mm circular needles. Use one to start then two or a very long one as the size of the blanket grows. I used an interchangeable with a cable connector and used two 100 cm (40”) cables.
