You are a five star teacher!! Clearest explanations for every stitch! Thank you. Love the pattern.
Making it for my great grand baby!!
Wow! I finally found a pattern that I wanted to try, but I was nervous about attempting something this difficult as an absolute beginner. However, your close up camera work, thorough explanations, and demonstration of all the steps and stitches has made be feel cautiously confident about attempting this. Thank you!
I agree.
This just fascinates me! I've just recently started learning different lace stitches here. It's been a long and very enjoyable process for me... and I've loved every single bit of it! Thank you!
I adore this blanket for this, too! :-) Have you gotten to make some, Gayla?
I just knitted this for my new grandbaby on the way. It turned out beautiful. I knitted it in lavender. The pattern was easy to follow Much easier than it looks. Thanks for the great tutorial.
I just finished this blanket for my nephew. It was my first ever knitting project where I'm following a pattern and also knitting a lace pattern. Your video was super helpful and has definitely helped increase my confidence! Thank you!!
hey can you please say what weight is your blanket is? I am trying to figure out how much yarn i need to buy :)
@@ohjedward I went for a pretty large ball, weighing at around 12.3oz (350g). The length was a little over 1200yd (about 1100m). So pretty big! I followed the pattern on the website, and got the Baby Bernat yarn, but really any yarn works as long as it fits a US needle size 7 (4.5mm). Hope this helps!
Sarah Ghabrial thank you! it helps a lot
I appreciate how all of your videos . I made this beautiful blanket twice.
Yarnspirations has found a diamond in the rough!
Excellent teacher, easy to follow. Thank you 😊
0523SHARON i couldnt agree with you more. Ive tried following others and.. she's the best by far. Mind you I'm self taught. So I've learned quite a bit in a short amount of time thanks to this wonderful woman!
Thank you so much. They used to have me on for a whole year but didn’t pick up again. Maybe another time. ☺️
Made this blanket for my sister’s 1st baby girl (my niece) during Covid lockdown which is when I first learned how to knit. Thanks for this great tutorial, clear and concise for a beginner. I made a few boo boos when I forgot to count had a few extra stitches lol She loved it. Still haven’t met my niece in person but I’m glad I was able to follow along with you to make this beautiful blanket for her.
i do it know, and see a little asymmetry in it. i am not sure is the right pattern
This is gorgeous and you are a great teacher! Thank you!
Great teacher. This is just the pattern and review I needed for a baby blanket . Thank u so much. A winner
Best instructional video I’ve ever seen!
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! It helped me out so much to understand the pattern because I'm swedish & ain't that familiar with all the terms etc & I usually need to see someone make the patterns to understand overall.
Made a blanket for my cousin's newborn & it turned out amazing! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
I have been knitting since I was 6...WELL over 35 years, lol. But with casting on in long tail, ( the way I was taught by my grandmother) I always had to take two or three tries to get a proper length, and suitable tail, she taught me to measure by length of needles which is difficult when working in the round. THANK YOU for demonstrating a much easier and more precise method!
Oh I'm so happy to hear it helped! I'd love to see your blanket :-).
Wow you are a great instructor! I have avoided patterns but you made this so much easier ! Thank you
I already wrote to ask for the pattern stitch count, I’m going to watch the video now, I heard so many good things about the way you teach I’m excited to see for myself lol!! And I also learned I can go to the web for pattern reformat I will try and find it, god bless
WOW you are the best. I have never knitted before but I know that I will be able to do this beautiful work. Thank you so much for your time
Learned to knit using this pattern. Vidio is very well explained and really easy to follow. Thanks
Hi, I loved watching the video. I’ve never knitted before and the patterns to me always looked like a foreign language. You explanation was on point and gave me hope that I can do this! Thanks

Great beginner lace project, thank you for sharing!
Superb teaching!! Thankyou !!! Im learning to stitch first time and that too via youtube so this video has been sooo informative. Im struggling with mistakes, stitches slipping off or unable to keep track once i pause.. any help in that regard
You are fantastic!
Great tutorial, thank you so much! 🙏💙
For anyone else who wants to try out this pattern but at a different size, I have figured out the cast on multiples! It takes a little work to do the math on your part BUT not only does this allow you to adjust the size, IT SOLVES FOR THE ASYMMETRY on the edges!!!!!
Equation for the cast on multiples: (16 x even number) + 26 = S
S is the number you should cast on. After you knit your 8 rows of garter stitch, knit the setup row as instructed noting that you're working on WS: K10, [Kfb, K15 to end of row]. The number of increases you get here should be +1 of the even multiple you used in the equation. For me, I did 16 x 14 and had 15 increases. This new total of stitches will be referred to as P, where P = S + number of increases.
To figure out your blanket symmetry BEFORE starting the pattern repeat, on a piece of paper make a T-chart thing that has:
10 | [ P - 20 ] | 10 -------> for me, my chart is 10 | 245 | 10
The number in the brackets should be odd. Subtract the last digit from P so that it is rounded to the nearest 10th. Ex: 10 | 240 | 10
Now with the remainder, divide it so that one number is greater than the other by one, Ex: I have 5 remainder and split it 2 & 3
Next, add these 2 digits to the side 10s of your chart where the smaller number (t) is on the left, bigger(n) on the right; Ex: 12 | 240 | 13
What these numbers correspond to is the knit stiches for the borders and the number of stitches used in the lace design. So now for Rows 1 and 3, instead of K10, *xxx* K10 you should know be knitting K(n), *xxx*, K(t) Ex: K13, *xxx*, K12
So when knitting, when looking at the RS, it should look like the right border has a garter (n) stitches wide and the left has (t) stitches.
To solve for asymmetry, on the WS (the even/purl rows): K(t +1), *xxx*, K(n) Ex: K13, *xxx*, K13
What this does is absorb the one column of stockinette stitch into the left side border and balances out the number of stitches in both side borders.
So after these calculations, the 4 row lace pattern repeat should look like:
R1: K(n). *K1. yo. K2. ssk. K2tog. K2. yo. K1. Rep from * to last (t) sts. K(t).
R2: K(t+1). Purl to last (n) sts. K(n).
R3: K(n). *yo. K2. ssk. K2tog. K2. yo. K2. Rep from * to last (t) sts. K(t).
R4: As 2nd row.
For the decrease row and last garter edge, follow original pattern as is.
And there you go, a symmetrical blanket pattern!
This blanket is still a WIP for me, but I thought I'd share the math I did to figure out how to to increase the width for an adult size blanket. A tip I have for those who are struggling with keeping the same number of stitches in the lace pattern is to use stitch markers... lots and lots of stitch markers lol. I have one placed after every 10 sts (so after every repeat in the row) so that I don't have to go through the trouble of reading back multiple stitches/repeats to figure out where I lost track
Very good pattern
Beautiful blanket.
Great pattern and I want to give it a try. Could you explain how can I calculate how much yarn of different material (cotton for example) do I need?
Excellent tutorial. Very thorough. You've earned a new subscriber.
S Thorne Thank you very much!! I’m so glad I could help. I’ve got some weaving coming tomorrow but will have another needle pattern coming soon. ☺️☺️ Thanks for subscribing! ❤️
Thank you I’m subscribing
Sure would like to see you do a video on the loom for this pattern. Thanks
Patricia Rone as requested. Here is the loom knit version. ruclips.net/video/DjRclPB77W8/видео.html
I started as a practise of this cause learning new techniques, complete beginner . My lace doesnt look anything at all i made so many mistakes dont know how to undo mistakes during knitting
There's a little bit of asymmetry along one end of the pattern, between the edge and the lace - a stripe of 1 stitch wide stockinette, and which I find completely unnecessary. It's visible on the right side at 2:04 (pattern image) and on the left at 28:24 (swatch).
There's a couple of easy solutions to it though, to make the pattern as symmetrical as possible:
1) Make the entire pattern one stitch narrower (start with 169 sts and increase to 179), and for the last repetition of the lace pattern every row, skip the last stitch before doing the outer edge.
2) Make one of the edges one stitch wider than the other - I don't think anyone will notice that difference.
I'm just a beginner, and there are at least two or three new techniques for me in this pattern, but I will definitely be knitting a nice comfy blanket for my sister's kid now. Thanks for this video!
thanks #goodknitkisses
you have showen me to knit thanks so much I learned slowly
It would be great to see how you convert pattern to a loom. Especially to see how to increase.
I am hoping you can help please, could you do a tutorial on how to do a step by step newborn baby V neck cardigan your tutorials are V good easy to follow and I'd love to make a cardigan please?
Thankyou beutiful work.
You are an amazing teacher!! So clear. Thank you
For the end of row one, I was left with 13 stitches. Does that mean i did something wrong and have to start over ?
I wanted to use thicker yarn Could u help me with the multiples please
Very good tutorial. I agree with a lot of comments that you have a great way of explaining this. Do you know if this takes the whole ball of yarn. I’m knitting this with smaller skeins of yarn and am wondering how much I need.
goodknitkisses has video, the seat cushion one, and in that she explains conversion of patterns.
How do I find this video once I’m on goodknitkisses?? Ty
Thanks!
This is a wonderful tutorial. Thanks so much! A question for you: when we block an acrylic blanket, does it need to be re-blocked after each washing?
Nancy Campbell it might.
Has I remember it is RS do as stated and WS do opposite. I am going to review to make sure because some patterns are harder to convert.
Excellent teacher and tutorial. Many, many thanks!
Hi I'm loving your tutorials! So helpful! I was wondering how I would go about adding length to this pattern.
Thank you so much for this video and for not knitting the continental way as l cant knit like that, been knitting for years but want mske something lacey, thinking of maybe not doing a knitting edge just slipping a first st and straight into the pattern, do you think it will stay flat, and what were multiples of pattern are olease, thinking of crocheting a border after x
A very y simple but tricky pattern. I messed up on the first 8 rows, can see the mess-up at the bottom of the blanket. First mistake was, after that mess-up, I wrote the pattern down, EASY, on the first front row you K1 & then yo, on the the 2rd row, you yo & then K2. I keep ending up with 1 st less. So obviously increase it back up right before the border 10 sts. Found another mistake....The 10 stitches I increased at the beginning, GONE, :-( I have finished 30" already. I am not undoing. It looks good. I have an eye for details and I can always pick up mistakes, but who ever make it for, can never tell. This is a proper wool that I am using, soooo hot these days got heat blisters on my fingers. I am so behind on my projects since working from home. The baby I made for is already born. Now all the clothes I am making are for this coming winter. Yeah, I could have crocheted a blanket in two days. But my love is ALWAYS for knitting. Even the cardigans & hates I have made are all knitted. Now that this blanket is coming to an end in a couple of days, I will search your other projects. I REALLY love this blanket & so does the girl I made it for. I better hurry up & post her things out after finishing. She has moved abroad and & I will ship the parcel, which is the cheapest way to go, but it will take 3 months by ship. She also wants a red n white shawl, that unfortunately would have to be crochet.
How would I know how to increase the size for a bigger blanket? What increments of stitches would I need to knit?
Great instruction video. ssk is also a k2 together thru back loops??? sometimes easier for me to think that way....lol...but no difference??
+Beverley Johnson yes and no. First the stitches have to be slipped into position and then through back loops. If you don't slip both then it will make the stitch look different than an SSK
Me encanta pero me gustaría subtítulos en español 🙏
I know this tutorial is 7 years old, but I really want to knit this baby blanket but the written tutorial does not seem to be available anymore. How can I get it, please?
before the edge it left 3 for me. I should finish like SSK and K2tog, but i should take one stich from the edge. if i dont i have 181 stiches... this pattern looks asymmetry. What i should do left with those 3 ???
Thank you so much for this video!
I was wondering if I could keep the edges in solid color and use a multicolored yarn for the pattern in between the edges...so how do i go about it?
Sana Moin you could do that. You would need to have a small bobbin or ball of yarn at end end for the hornets and the main color in the middle. Just twist the yarn where it changes color.
can we cast on in another method?
I am a beginner. When casting 170 stitches, we are not counting the first one (slip knot), right? Thank you so much for your hard work, your videos are amazing!
Olia Luis hello! Yes, great question. You will count your slip knot in knitting. It is open and makes a stitch and you will work right into it. It’s rare to not count that. However if you have crocheted before it’s the opposite; in crochet you don’t count it. So it’s a valid question.
Is it normal to finish at the last ten but to have not fully completed the rep?
Could you write down what the pattern is for the smaller swatch?
Hi I am a quite experienced knitter but I have started pattern twice and at the end of 4th row I have one extra stitch. What do you think I am doing wrong. I am working on straight needles btw Janet
Hello! I would love to make this blanket bigger than the pattern states, what are the multiples for this pattern? Thanks!
I would like to make mine larger also. You didn’t get an answer 11 months ago so what did you end up doing?
Should you always have 180 stitches when working the lace pattern?
Every time I start working the lace pattern, I add dozens of stitches. Not sure if it’s the lace rows or the purl rows. Can you help me with this?
Same here. I just finished 1st row of lace pattern and I gained 1 stitch (now have 181) had to stop in the middle of the pattern to finish the last 10 stitches for border. Before I continue is this normal? Or should I rip out and try this row again?
Hi, My name is Lisa and I'm new to knitting. This blanket is beautiful and I'm trying to make. I have a question. It says to knit the first 8 rows, but when I look at it in the video, it looks stockinette. When I try it, it looks different than in the video. Am I doing something wrong?
It is a very nice pattern for baby blanket. Can you please explain why you need to add 10 stitches from 170 to 180? What is the purpose? Thanks
I believe it was to accommodate gauge for that stitch pattern once it is added to the garter on either side. The garter is a looser stitch so the lace pattern needs more stitches to adjust. If not then the middle would look like it was too small for the border around it. I hope that helps.
@@GoodKnitKisses Thank you.
Do you have to have the same yarn and needle size to follow this? I have medium 4 yarn and the correct size circular needles.
What do you do if let's say I finish a row with pattern 3 and have 1 extra stitch? I'm like 20 rows in. I'd hate to have to restart 😭
I have 2 balls of blue and 1 ball of white... Would it be possible to do the border in white? As it is my first blanket I am nervous about changing yarns.
i am just starting , havent knitted anything !
is this a good start ?
@goodknitkisses im a beginning knitter and this is my first progect, i need help. For the beginning i have made 169 stiches but the string is too short to make another one, what should i do??
Does anyone know the stitch count for this pattern!!?? I’d like to change the co number?? Ty
I made this but it doesn't really look like yours. It's pretty though.
I am a beginner knitter, I was wondering if i absolutely had to had circular needles. My needles are size 7; however, they are straight. Will they still work with this pattern?
Rhiannon Cannoe not sure if you got your answers or not....but it depends on what you're making.if it's a scarf that's only one or two inches wide then you can just use straight needles but of its a blanket it would be best to use these as straight ones would be hard to work with.
I knitted a christening shawl on straight needles and I had 420 stitches on! You can knit large items on straight needles just buy the longest you can find. I am a seasoned knitter though of some 40 years experience.
I keep trying to do this but despite my efforts my wool keeps joining together any advice or tips ?
I dont have any circular needles can straight be used
Yes but straight needles are only so long. At some point you will run out of room on your needle. If you are making the smaller sample the answer is yes. Or you can make smaller panels and sew it together. If you want to make wider items then you will need circular needles.
How much actual yarn does this take?
I should have said the end of the 4th pattern row Janet
Could I make this but do the border in stockinette stitch rather than garter? Would any other adjustments be needed other than tracking knit and purl rows for the edging? Thanks for your help!
You could do the border in stockinette but it would curl. You could substitute a seed stitch border to break it up instead though and it wouldn’t curl.
GoodKnitKisses okay! I’ll give that a try! Thank you 😊
How could I go about cutting this in half? I would like to use size 10 needles.
Its a 10 stich repeat. U can measurement to see how much stitches u want. In this patern ot starts with 170 then one row increase to 180. So if u want half then.
If u go half the stiches u will start off with 85 stiches n then one row of increase of only 5 stiches will give u 90. Then just follow the pattern of 2 rows. All in between is also 10 stich repeat.
Would it be possible to do the border in stockinette?
Could you exclude the lace from the pattern?
For a beginner, approximately how many hours/time you think will take to make the blanket please?
@Linda S wow that's a lot 😬 maybe I'll just buy one and say I made it lol
GoodKnitKisses ... I don't have size 7 circular needles. But will it work on my size 8 straight needles? Thanks. :)
How many hours would you say this takes a beginner to complete?
It’s not really a beginner type pattern so I’d say it depends on the person and how much time you have to dedicate to it. I don’t really have a good answer since it depends on many factors.
Por favor 🙏 podría repetir en español gracias
How many stitches do I need to double the size of the blanket?
Before I start this blanket I would really like to make it larger so It would mean so much to me if you could help me
I wish the pattern would have given "multiples of" for the cast-on. I am finding it very difficult to figure out how to make it wider and keep a 10 stitch border on each side. I think the border stitch number would have to be adjusted somehow - like 12 stitches rather than 10 if you wanted to do 11 increases on row 5.
I agree it is a bit frustrating. Currently it is 160 sts between the borders so that’s 16 repeats. How repeats are you trying to make yours? I can try to help. If it’s only a few repeats you may be fine just adding 10 for each to your repeats. When you increase just stop at the new number (so if adding two repeats cast on 190 and increase until 200). If it’s more then you’ll need to add in a few more increases.
@@GoodKnitKisses I think it is the other way around which is where it gets complicated. For the cast-on, I think it is 10 repeats of 16 :). You are increasing 10 times in row 5 (every 16th stitch) but they included the 10 for the left border in the counting which is where it gets confusing. Your swatch had 3 "columns" and you only increased 2. So a 2 increase looks like 10 | 10 | 10 in the body. I saw in the video that you did not have 10 stitches for the left border after the 2 repeats. I think you only had 7 left..
I tried a 3 increase swatch to see if I could work it out... I cast on 3 x 16 + 10 = 58 stitches. This gave me 4 repeats with 10 stitches on the right and 11 on the left. One stitch is not a big deal though. I could cast-on 59 stitches then make an 11 border on each side.... I think LOL It may work out better to do an even number of repeats. That way you could probably adjust the border stitches more evenly.
Thanks so much for responding and making the tutorial video!!!
Oh. I see. You are basing off of my swatch. That was for demonstration purposes only. The pattern is at the link in the description. It has a pattern repeat of 10 with a border on each side of 10. Cast on is 170 and increases to 180. There are 160 stitches in the main pattern with 10 on each side for border.
@@GoodKnitKisses No, I was using the downloaded pattern and examining row 5 which is where the magic happens. The pattern seems to be "stuck" at the 170 cast on rows to make the 16 repeats starting in row 6. If you want more or less than the 16 once you get to row 6 I think the borders have to be adjusted to keep the "body" centered in the entire project.
Oops, sorry it is row 9 where the magic happens. On my swatch I only did 4 rows of the knit stitch to get to the body faster so I had 5 stuck in my head.
hi.. what happens when i reached row 5? which pattern should i follow then?
Gabriel Wu it repeats back to row 1
