Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn (approximately 500 yards)
• Needles: US Size 15 (10 mm) knitting needles
• Gauge: 8 stitches and 12 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch
• Tapestry Needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 80 stitches onto your US Size 15 knitting needles. Make sure your stitches are not too tight to allow for easy movement.
2. Row 1: Knit all stitches across the row. This will create a solid foundation for your blanket.
3. Row 2: Purl all stitches across the row. This will help form the texture of the blanket.
4. Row 3: Begin the wave pattern. *(Knit 2 stitches, Purl 2 stitches) and repeat from * to the end of the row. This alternating pattern creates the textured waves.
5. Row 4: Continue the wave pattern. *(Purl 2 stitches, Knit 2 stitches) and repeat from * to the end of the row. This will create the undulating effect in your blanket.
6. Row 5: Knit all stitches across the row. This will add another solid layer to your texture.
7. Row 6: Purl all stitches across the row. This will continue to enhance the texture of your blanket.
8. Repeat Rows 3-6: Continue repeating Rows 3 through 6 until your blanket measures approximately 60 inches in length. Make sure to measure periodically to ensure you reach the desired length.
9. Bind Off: Once your blanket has reached the desired length, bind off all stitches. To bind off, knit the first two stitches, then use the left needle to lift the first stitch over the second stitch and off the needle. Continue this process until all stitches are bound off.
10. Weave in Ends: Using a tapestry needle, weave in any loose ends from your yarn. This will give your blanket a clean and polished finish.
