MATERIALS
For this blanket use Stylecraft Special DK which is a 100% premium acrylic yarn. It's lovely to work with, comes in generous 100g balls and the finished blankets are warm, soft and machine washable.
12 shades for this Yuletide blanket, adding 3 additional balls of colours (Lipstick, Claret, Kelly Green) to make 15 x 100g in total. This is enough to make a blanket measuring approximately 150cm / 5ft square (or 120cm x 180cm single bed size if you wish to create a striped blanket from the Yuletide yarn pack)
FINISHED SIZE 120 X 180CM (SINGLE BED SIZE) or 150cm x 150cm 5'
YOU WILL NEED A 4MM CROCHET HOOK NOT INCLUDED
HOOK SIZE and TENSION
The standard hook size for Stylecraft Special DK yarn is 4mm. However, it's a good idea to be familiar with your own personal tension and experiment with moving to a larger or smaller hook to achieve a neat result. If you crochet loosely you can reduce your hook size to 3.5mm. Similarly, if your tension tends to feel quite tight, you can increase your hook size to 4.5mm or 5mm to achieve the correct size square.
