He is 6'4" tall, so it is nice and will cover him to the toes. He loves it. I used three skeins (16 oz. each). For a total of 48oz. Of yarn. I used H-8 / 5.00 mm hook (recommended hook on the label).
The Soft Pink blanket is perfect for a baby shower I am going to. I made it with Red Heart Soft Baby yarn. It measures 34" wide x 45" Long (86cm x 114 cm). I used two skeins of Red Heart Soft Baby (7 oz.) I used a G-6 / 4.0 mm Hook. Color: Powder Pink.

I used four skeins (16 oz. each) for a total of 64 oz. of yarn, H-8 / 5.00 mm hook (recommended hook on the label). I started with 146 chains. This blanket fits my double bed and measures 67" wide x 78" long (170 cm x 198cm). I made an extra-wide border for this blanket (instructions included).
If you are like me, you choose a blanket by the stitch/pattern first and not the size. Did you ever see a stitch you Love, but the pattern is for a baby blanket? Not a problem here. All of my designs include the pattern repeat so that you can make it ANY size.
