How to Knit a Corner to Corner (C2C) Garter Stitch Blanket | Rectangle or Square

  • This blanket is my go-to quick knit. With its super simple Corner to Corner method, and only 3 types of stitch used, its a great project to work up when you're in want of a nice mindless knit, and with its buit in edge, and soft garter stitch pattern, the finished product is beautifully modern in its simplicity.
    Although this pattern is for a baby blanket, it will also work brilliantly for little washcloths, or dishcloths.

      Hello! Thank you so much for these clear video instructions! It cleared up my confusion about the middle part of the rectangle. You may want to check the instructions on your website, for the middle part it says to "Repeat Row 2" when it should be to Repeat Row 1 and Row 2. Thanks again for a great video!

    I can’t tell you how pleased I am on this day to have found your channel. I don’t want to bore with my problem’s suffice to say that 4 yrs ago I had a stroke. I am immensely lucky to have come through all of that and I count my blessings every day. BUT…. (there’s always a but) my brain isn’t quite right, in that i find ‘counting’ hard and my speech has been badly affected. I used to be able to knit, pretty much anything especially Aran patterns . I loved them. To cut a long story short, I can knit, I can crochet and I’m thankful but as a beginner. I love garter stitch because it’s easy and I spend my time knitting and crocheting baby blankets and they go to our ‘Baby Basics’. So, thankyou for your clear, concise tutorials and excellent camera work. I’m going to start this corner to corner blanket tomorrow….gets my creative juices flowing again🎉❤. Thanks and hello from beautiful NI, Belfast.

    Hi Laurelin, Have just discovered your channel and have been enjoying your videos. I am a visual leaner and find the way you give your tutorials very easy to understand thank you for sharing. Just this week (September) I have been blessed with my first great grandchild, and this idea for a blanket is exactly what I needed to keep me busy as we come into the long winter evenings. "Mindless knitting" is perfect as there is no pattern but the actual finished item looks great. Chris from Kent

(Which complimented my rookie holes i made here and there by accident). Which was a good place to start I feel ready to try this one with KFB increase.
    I also appreciate the way you stick to a standard size for your blankets so it is easy to figure out how much yarn we will need, for a bigger blanket I just have to listen to how much yarn you used and x4 + 1 incase.

    PS Interesting that you knit continental style, as I have recently learnt to do. It might be worth mentioning this to a traditional U.K. knitting audience used to the « throw » method. I find the continental knit and the Norwegian purl very relaxing.

    • @SnufflebeanYarn
      @SnufflebeanYarn  Рік тому

      Hi Linda, I actually have quite a broad audience across the world so I haven’t felt the need to mention it - I can following throwing videos easily so assumed the throwers of the world can still follow mine too and knit the project in their own style :-)
      My mum is from Finland and I was taught to knit by her - hence the continental style 😀

    I haven’t knitted for years, was once prolific. I learned to crochet just before Covid which was great as it was amazing being able to improve my skills particularly during that first year. I’ve just seen your blanket which looks gorgeous so I thought I would give it a go. I was very surprised watching your technique, totally different to how I used to knit. I have heard people talk about the continental style which I think is said to be quicker and more efficient. Is that what you are doing? Love the blanket. I remember my son and wife had a shop bought one very similar for their first born and it was very pricey!

      Hello! Yes it’s continental knitting, my mum is from Finland and it’s her that taught me to knit so it was just me picking up the style she knits in. I would definitely agree though that continental style is much much easier for a crocheter to pick up when coming to the craft.
      (As a side note - I’m the opposite to you, I was a prolific crocheter and decided to learn to knit when my grandmother died as I wanted to knit socks like she did)

    Always love your blanket patterns. Thanks so much. I'm knitting a blanket using different shades of blue - navy, light blue, multi blues etc. How should I work out when to change the yarn colours? Thanks Cheryl

      Just change yarn when you are ready to introduce a new colour, and make sure you always change colour at the same edge of the blanket.
