This video is all about the weaving of a baby boy's blanket. This blanket was made on my Ashford rigid heddle loom. I explain different techniques that I used in order to change colors in the most invisible way possible. I also share the stunning pattern and the final blanket. I used Lion Brand's yarn and it wove beautifully. #rigidheddle #weaving #babyblanket

THE PATTERN
I have created a blog post about the weaving of this project where I provide all the details about the pattern for free. Here's the link: curly-n-yarny.com/weaving-the...
THE YARN
For this project, I'm using Lion Brand's yarn from their "Feel like Butta" collection. The yarn is actually made of 100% Polyester and it's super easy to wash! I used 4 different colors:
-2 balls of Ice 106AE (Light Green)
-1 ball of Dusty Blue 108A (Blue)
-1 ball of Lemon 158A (Yellow)
-1 ball of Pale Grey 149 (Light grey)
Note that each ball contains 218 yards (199m) of yarn.
If you wish to get the same yarn, you could do so directly on the Lion Brand’s website. Here’s the link: shrsl.com/43dqh
MY LOOM
In the video, you can see my Ashford rigid heddle loom. Its width is 32" (80cm) and I love it! If you are in the US and looking for the same loom, The Woolery has it! Here's their website: woolery.com/ashford-rigid-hed...
