Chunky Yarn Blanket — Beginner/Intermediate
“Not Crafty? Challenge Accepted.”
Ready to learn chunky yarn?
You’re going to leave with your very own chunky yarn blanket that YOU made yourself. But this class is about so much more than making one blanket. With over 20 years of experience, I don’t just show you what to do and send you on your way.
I teach you a skill.
NEW TO CHUNKY YARN? PERFECT.
This is where you start.
If you’ve never worked with chunky yarn before, don’t know a single stitch, or have absolutely no idea how the hell a giant pile of yarn is supposed to turn into a blanket, you’re in the right place.
We’re starting from the beginning.
I’ll teach you the foundational chunky yarn stitches and techniques you need, give you time to practice them, show you what mistakes to watch for, and teach you how to fix them.
You learn the skill while we make the cool stuff.
Throughout the class, I’ll guide you step-by-step, but I’m not going to have you blindly copy what I’m doing. I want you to understand what you’re doing, why you’re doing it, how to recognize when something has gone wrong, and most importantly, how to fix it.
You’ll learn:
Foundational chunky yarn stitches and techniques
How to comfortably work with chunky chenille yarn
How to start and build your blanket
How to create straight, even edges
How to keep your stitches and tension consistent
How to join a new skein of yarn
Why we do things a certain way instead of simply following directions
What common mistakes to watch for
How to recognize when something isn’t looking right
How to fix mistakes without starting the whole damn thing over
How to properly finish your blanket
All the little tips, tricks, and techniques I’ve learned through 20+ years of experience
You won’t get this level of instruction from an online tutorial or another chunky yarn class in town.
Because my goal isn’t for you to leave saying:
“Look at this blanket I made.”
I want you to leave saying:
“Holy crap. I know how to MAKE that.”
Because there’s a difference.
The blanket is what we’re making that day, but the stitches and techniques you learn are skills you can carry into other chunky yarn projects long after class is over.
You’re not paying to simply follow along and make one blanket. You’re learning a skill you get to keep. And you just happen to walk out with a pretty damn awesome blanket.
