Alize Puffy Blanket 180×200: Exact Yarn Quantity and Finger Knitting Instructions for Beginners

The Ultimate Guide: A Dreamily Warm Blanket (180×200 cm) with Innovative Alize Puffy Yarn

Are you looking for a quick and fun way to knit a huge, super-soft blanket to keep you warm on cold winter nights? Here is the perfect solution: Alize Puffy yarn! This innovative yarn has revolutionized the world of hand knitting, as it allows you to create comfortable and beautiful blankets without needles or tools, using only your fingers.

What is Alize Puffy Yarn?

Alize Puffy is a microfiber polyester yarn (100% hypoallergenic polyester) characterized by pre-made loops along the thread. This unique design makes it ideal for finger knitting, where you simply pull the loops through other loops to form dense stitches.

✨ Unbeatable Advantages of Alize Puffy:

1. Extreme Simplicity for Beginners: You don't need any prior knitting or crocheting experience.
2. Quick Completion: A complete blanket can be finished in record time compared to traditional yarns.
3. Unparalleled Softness: The velvety texture is ideal for baby blankets, throws, and clothing.
4. Exceptional Warmth: The polyester offers excellent thickness and insulation.

???? Estimating the Required Yarn Quantity for a 180×200 cm Blanket

Accurately determining the amount of yarn is crucial to avoid stopping the project before completion. The estimate of the required quantity for a 180×200 cm blanket mainly depends on two factors:

1. Type of Pattern/Stitch: (e.g., simple stitch, basketweave, or cable stitch). Some patterns consume more yarn than others.
2. Knitting Density: (Do you knit tightly or rather loosely?).

Based on common estimates for large blankets:

• Standard weight of Alize Puffy: Each skein weighs 100 grams and has a running length of approx. 9 meters.
• A 150×200 cm blanket requires about 20 skeins (2 kg).

???? Recommended Quantity for a 180×200 cm Blanket:

To achieve the desired size (larger than 150×200 cm) with adequate density:

???? Important Tip: It is recommended to buy 28 skeins to ensure you have enough, and to have a reserve of 10-15% for adjustments or if your pattern is denser.

???? How to Knit an Alize Puffy Blanket (Short Instructions)

1. Determine the Number of Stitches (Width): Start with a row of loops (representing the width of the 180 cm blanket). To determine the exact number, first knit a small swatch (e.g., 10 stitches) to see how many centimeters they cover, and then calculate the total number.
2. The Knitting: Follow the pattern you have chosen. The easiest way is to pull a loop of the working yarn through a loop of the previous row. For this, lay out the yarn to the desired length so that all stitches are facing upwards, making sure that none of the stitches are twisted. For a better overview, it helps to also lay out the yarn for the next row in an orderly fashion. Now start pulling the stitches of the working yarn through those of the previous row, taking care not to miss any stitches; laying them out neatly helps with this.

1. Continue Knitting: Knit rows until the blanket reaches the desired length (200 cm).
2. Finishing: In the last row, "close" the loops by pulling one through the other, then cut the thread and pull it through the last stitch.

We wish you much joy in knitting and a warm blanket!
