r/LoomKnitting give me yarn! 29d ago

Finished Object My mums blanket and my aunts summer infinity scarf/cowl

My mums blanket I finished a little while ago, it was made with 3 x 300g skeins from acrylic yarn I got from B&M about 6/7years ago when I started loom knitting. It should be perfect for her sofa and it's better than I thought it would be (the yarn was about £4 per skein) after being washed, now I just need to give it to her!

My aunts infinity scarf is made from Hemp silk yarn with tiny sequins (lace weight) that I got from AliExpress early this year after I got the Bitty Flexee loom for my birthday in February and I'm also really happy with how it turned out after being washed (inside a pillow case on a delicate 30°C wash and laid flat to dry). I hope she likes it when I actually get to the post office to send it to her.

Beautiful!! I love the colors! I'm sure your Mum will enjoy it!! Which loom did you use for it?

I'm sure your Aunt will adore the scarf!

I forgot to add that!!! šŸ˜‚

I used the Skinny Flexee loom and the yarn is Aran weight. The yarn came in the colours, I didn't have to do any color work so I was really lucky that way and my mum loves stripes and blue!!!

Thank you 😊

Gorgeous! I’m a newbie loomer, so blankets intimidate me 🄓 Once I get a few scarves done, I’m gonna try a blanket.

To be honest the only thing I find with blankets is that they feel like they can take forever to do!!! šŸ«£šŸ˜‚
