The first thing that you need to know is that you have to have the correct size of blanket. The pattern is available on Ravelry.com and the size is shown in the pattern. You will need to work with loom weights and sets of needles. The pattern is made using the same yarn as the finished blanket, but you will need to adjust the pattern to make sure that you have the same size. I created the blanket with a yarn weight of 550, but I used a yarn weight of 600 for the first and last blankets.
