I want to make the queen-size blanket of my dreams

Which weight do I need?

In order to knit our most popular blanket, you will need 10 lb. of ComfyWool.

What size will I get?

The final size of the blanket will depend on the size of your stitches.

Following these recommendations, you will obtain a blanket of approximately 50 × 70 inches.
