I see two different versions of picot edging in your videos. One seems like it would be thicker (in your picot hem video) because you fold it over. However, in your cast on picot edging it seems like it would be less thick. Which did you use here? It seems like the one that doesn't require the fold over but below you recommended the picot hem video.

I used the picot hem, the one that's folded over, on this blanket.

How many stitches would you say are good for a baby blanket? i wanted to make one for my nephew when he was born, and he is a year old in february! i'm a little late haha.

i learned to knit in a crafts class in my highschool about 6 years ago, and my teacher wasn't too great at hands on teaching or even paying much attention to the class. i only know how to do the main knit stitch and i've only really knitted scarves. i wish there was a group near by where i live to get more experience!

@quilee

the number of stitches depends on the yarn and the needle size. look on the label when you buy the yarn and it will tell you how many stitches you'll get with the needle size they recommend. If you go to a yarn shop there will be someone there to help you. You can make it as big or little as you want. Have fun knitting again. I would suggest you do the garter stitch. Knit every row.

What technique did you use to block it? It looks beautiful!

sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I just did a very light steam. With softball cotton you don't have to do much of anything.

I would so love to see you do a how to video on this blanket I have learned so much from your videos keep them coming

I really appreciate your very informative videos. You have a great, easy approach to teaching and I love all the tips I have learned, especially how to add new color and weave in the ends by knitting them in. I think I must be a tight knitter, or I'm using the wrong size needles for the project. It is hard for me to knit two stitches together for the like lace stitch stitch, I actually broke the end off a plastic needle!
