So glad it's helpful!
I’ve been binging diy videos to make Xmas gifts and this is one of my favorites!!! Thank you so much!
An hour later and I have a beautiful blanket to give to my sister for her thirteenth birthday! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial.
One of the best teachers I truly appreciate you and your blessings!!!!!! 🦋🙏💝🦋👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎊🎈🎊
I like this. I used to knit in class in high school several years ago because of you. I think ill start back again. 😂
Brittany Rogers yay! So happy you shared this ☺️
You not only make it look easy it is sooo much more fun than ever sooooo much easier than I thought!!!!
Again thank you!!!!!!!
Really it looks
Absolutely amazing. You make it look easy!!! Ive just been on and ordered this wool and Im so excited to try this. xxxx
Would have liked to see the finished blanket laid out to see. Thanks
I wonder what size it was?
Thank you so much for simplifying the arm knitting process and for sharing your skills in this video. Viewers will have a fun project and cute snuggle blanket thanks to your help.
I want to recommend a review of what a "square knot" actually is. Although you called it a "square knot" in this video, the knot you demonstrated in this video is most commonly known as a "granny knot." Because of its spiraling nature, a granny knot has much less holding strength than an actual square knot does.
For a knot to truly be a square knot, the crossing and tucking under of tail ends has to be from opposite sides of the knot each time. (First cross the RIGHT tail end behind and tuck it through, next cross LEFT tail end behind and tuck it through, and repeat as often as desired... right then left.) The granny knot you demonstrated crosses behind and tucks under from only the right hand all three times.
I mean no sassy malice. I just know how disappointing it is to have a project unravel because the granny knot slipped out--as it is well known to do--and don't want your viewers to experience that same disappointment.
Thanks so much for sharing! I've never done anything like this, but you made it so easy to follow, I was able to make a wonderful gift for my mother during a year that makes it much appreciated.
Thank you so much Maggie!!! The tutorial is very clear and i have finished knitting a lap blanket in an hour
Maggie, I completed mine in beige, color and length are SO cozy! Thank you so much!
Mandy Oliver you are very welcome! ❤️

Me trying to find something to do during quarantine
I am
I literally just left the wool store now so tonight I’ll be attempting my blanket 🧚
Yup me to 😏
I have a ton of finger knitting left over so I did something with it!
Thanks! This will be a great Mother's Day gift!
I’m a total beginner and you made this so easy to understand!! Your the best 😂☺️
So well explained and lovely blanket😍... please show us the end finished blanket more onto something so we have an idea about size, how it looks etc. Thanks
I love all of the projects that you make I'm just learning to make them
It was amazing!Thank you for tell your trick to make this amazing blanket!
Thanks so much 😃🙏amazing tutorial!! Can’t wait to start a blanket 😊
I enjoyed both videos. I didn't know how to knit when I watched your 1st video years ago. So i didn't understand what was going on. Now I can knit . So I looked you up again and i found the yarn on sale. So I am doing it this time. Thank you.
This helped so much for me as a beginner for arm knitting 😭❤️
Thank you ... you make it look so easy!
You did a fabulous job!! Love!!!
Real nice. Seems quick and easy. Will try.
Thanks! I love these blankets!! I've ordered the yarn to make my own! :)
I just made one in 90 minutes!! Thank you for the tutorial!!
I am making this for my moo M on mother's day and this video was so easy to understand💕
I've seen these done by hand knitting on a table but this is the first time I've seen arm knitting. Thanks so much for doing a tutorial on it because it's a lot easier for me to knit a blanket this way as I don't have table space for the other way! :)
Thank you for this tutorial it is so easy with your instructions.
I love this...that much I’m going to have to share it.. thank you 😊❤️
I've never knitted before let alone arm knit! I'm too excited to have my OWN blanket that I MADE thanks for the tutorial you gave me something positive to turn to
I love this! I have always seen the end product that my grandmother did but didn't stay around as a kid to learn. Now I am making me a she-shed/room and this is going to be my next project for decor!! I would love to learn how to do a design in the blanket. I love elephants.
I love this blanket
Fabulous. love it.
I got a bunch of this yarn for Christmas and I didn’t know what to do with it until I saw this video! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this! I made a throw for my bff for Xmas and once I got into a groove, I was surprised how fast it was.
Thank you for the advice.x
WOW you are so talented Maggie :D
Wonderful video, well explained and easy to follow. Thanks. XOXOX
So a good explanation. Thanks.
Great tutorial, I made my blanket in about an hour. Thank you for the very clear instructions.
Glad it was helpful!
Unique & beautiful♥️
I didn't know u could arm knit! Thanks😇
What is the end measurement? Like is it a 4x5, 4x4, 3x3??? Would love to make this if it isn’t too small!
I really hate how she doesn't answer ANY questions from anyone especially this one.
very nice clear instructions.
This was super helpful thank you. I’ve never done this before so will be back when the yarn arrives.
Does anyone know the approx size when finished? Thanks in advance x.
I’ve made a blanket before, but just found Premier Couture Jazz and it’s so much better! Easy to work with and it’s gorgeous!! Would you say this is a lap blanket?
My son loves to knit - excited to give him some chunky yarn and let him go nuts!
This is soo cool!
this is an AMAZING tutorial !!!
Why is your profile tommy no hat but like ooop
@@booberry6507 because he is adorable 😃👍
Hey this looks awesome! What are the dimensions of the finished blanket (with 8 skeins)??
Thank you for this video. This is the yarn I read that you suggested as your favorite. My daughter wants me to make a blanket that's big enough for she and her husband to snuggle under. I've never arm knitted before so I I don't know how much yarn I would need and how to figure out a decent size. Do you have any suggestions for me? So do you have any tips on how I can figure out how much yarn I would need or measurements? If there's a pattern somewhere that would be great? I know this is essentially pretty straightforward and fortunately this is what my daughter would like.
Me- oh I can do this,
My arm - I can't breath🤢
I’m making one for my girlfriend as part of her Christmas gift and holy crap
This is amazing ! How do u wash this without damage?
Beautiful
I really struggled to tighten all my stitches, and had to have a loose stitch to make sure i didn't loose feeling in my arms (happened a few times and had to drop it and restart), I really tried but might have to big arms for this, to get a close knit similar to your result.
I have got some more wool to try again, but was thinking about knitting using your arm technique but using PVC Pipes of about 2"s'
Have you done this before or could give me any advice?
Love this tutorial. I am having some trouble once I finish the cast on arm, and move to the next arm I have a long length of yarn when going to do my third row...help.
Gorgeous! Looks so easy to make!
I have a question, if I want to start by making an L with one color, and then change the color for the rest of the blanket? Or start by making the outer one color and the inner with a different one? (I hope you understand what I mean.)
Great tutorial! I'm having a hard time finding the yarn. Can you make some suggestions as to where I may be able to purchase online?
Great tutorial!! I just made one for myself, and its so quick and easy!!!
although since chunky yarn is so expensive i just bought some worsted weight yarn (i think i used like 11 skeins, which is like $30-40) and i finger knitted the yarn first to make it chunkier. plus i made my blanket bigger too lol
but this was really easy to follow! i'll def be doing it again >3
How did you make yours bigger? How many cast on slips did you use? And how many rows? I want to make a pretty big one too. ❤️
How big is the blanket when finished using the 8 skeins?
This was an awesome tutorial! So easy to follow! The width of the blanket came out a little narrow for me. About 3 ft wide. Maybe 24 cast on stitches would have been better, although you are definitely limited by arm space!
Exactly
After several restarts, about 3 hours later I have one to give to my sister for Christmas tomorrow! Thanks!
I made a blanket and this helped me a lot
Love this can't wait to try it, How many packages of yarn did you actually use?
TankU Maggie! Can U tell me how many skeins I would need to make a queen size blanket? Loved yr tutorial ❤
Wow! Beautiful I have purchased some yarn and am wondering do you have a rough idea on how many stitches wide for a baby blanket?
Great tutorial. Seems super easy. I'm trying to Knit a king size blanket. Any info on how much yard I need?
Hi Maggie, thank you so much for the tutorial. I know I am supposed to tighten the strands, but there are still gigantic holes in my blanket. I did try my best to tighten the stitches. I wonder what went wrong. The finished product is still cute, but not what I expected.
Thank you! I did it! It's not half bad. The only thing that wasn't super clear in your video... How exactly do we tighten? Specifically the first and second stitch after switching arms. I couldn't keep it as tight as I wanted and I was really giving my wrists a run for their money, trying to keep my stitches small.
Very interesting.
I have a question: what do you do if you want to take a break from your knitting?
Hey! I have yet to try this but maybe putting something like a thick knitting needle in your loop and trying not to jostle it too much could do the trick!
Pushing the loops on to a cardboard kitchen roll inner helps. Then simply push loops back on to arms.
Have you tried using Premier Yarns Retro super chunky yarn, to arm knit a blanket?
thank you!!!!!
I know this is an old video so idk if you'll reply but when doing the first stitches is there anyway to make the loops tighter once they're on your arm?
Can you please share with me how much yarn is needed for a blanket like 72X84
How big when finished, how much yarn needed?
Love it!
I have followed you from the very beginning and consider you to be the 1st/original arm knitter. 😁 My question is, how many balls of yarn, how many stitches and rows would you suggest for a baby/toddler sized blanket? Thank you. ~Theresa
I’m 13 almost 14 and found this very hard at first. I re started 3 times before I got the hang of it. Some people asked if you want to stop how do you? I found if you put all the lops on a poll or a different color string and be very careful with the transition between your arm and other string you should be good. And then when you want to start you put the lops on the string or poll back on your arm.
hi!! im practicing this with a much (smaller? thinner?) yarn so that i have an idea of what im doing once my couture jazz yarn arrives. However, my stitches w i l l n o t tighten. is this just because of the yarn im using? i've been pulling on the working yarn :(
Would loved to have seen you holding up the finished product 😊
im currently trying to make 1 but my wool is far to small and i dont know if it will work the same but im ver confused on how i make my next row of stitches could someone help explain it to me and whats the best wool to use?
Thank you so much, I made a scarf in less than ten minutes with your instructions! Yay!
Cynthia Tingler yay!! 👏🏻👏🏻
How big will this turn out? I want to make a pretty big one and if I wanted to do a couple rows of another color would you just tie it on when you want the blanket to have the rim?
Thank You nice
Maggie, I was at the end of my blanket and I was going bind off but in the middle of the binding I did not have enough yarn, I need to take out some stitches and I don’t how to fix. Do you a video on fixing stitches to get back to finishing and binding. I don’t want to tear apart the whole blanket.
How is the quality of rue yarn? Are they soft? I want to get a high quality knitted blanket but can’t justify the over price. Might make this!
How many stitches would you suggest for a child size blanket?
Using this to make my sister a baby blanket for my nephew who is due in January. ❤️
Hello...how easy is this yarn is to wash/dry? Thanks!
I m going to try it.
I wanted to know if you ever tried the waffle stitch.
