Nick Blanket by ‘We are knitters’ Review

This is my sixth knitting project. This is the Nick blanket by ‘We are knitters’. The color is honey. It is knitted in “The wool” which is a chunky 100% wool 1-ply yarn. I picked this kit because it looked simple like the Strelitzia scarf and I am going to use it on my couch. It took me about 8 hours of knitting time.

This kit includes 4 balls of The wool, a set of 15 mm knitting needles in wood, which I opt out, a label that you can sew on the finished product (which said knitted by myself), and a couple sewing needles.

Cost breakdown: 4 skeins of yarn $96, the kit was $109 with the needles, $97 without the needles. So the pattern ended up costing me $1. I am a beginner, but experienced knitters can probably tell the pattern just by looking at the picture.

I do not have to have any “new” skills after the Strelitzia scarf, which is good, because I feel really accomplished. This blanket is only about 2 feet wide, so sitting on my couch, it is barely wide enough to cover myself. I made it longer since I have yarn left so I continued knitting. Will I make it again? Probably not. I feel the size is very odd, like a beach towel. I do enjoy using it while sitting on my couch.
