When hand-woven blankets are generated it is because a large measure of wool or thread is used, in which it is much easier to use the fingers of the hands to create the stitches, it is done with simple interlacing, which are repetitive in a number of turns and then continue with the same sequences until
reaching the appropriate measure, the first thing to do to start knitting this type of blankets is to unroll the wool, and knots could be generated when making the stitches.
The hand-woven blankets start with a base of chains across the width, like any fabric, the first knot must be made, in this case a tail is made, so called because a few inches of thread tail is left , the thread is tangled and a hole is left through which the thread of the thread must pass for the next row, put your hand through the hole which must be the size of your wrist so that the operation is simple, the idea is to introduce the hand to take the loop and make chains.
FIRST LAP AFTER THE CHAIN BASE After the chain base in the hand-woven blankets with the pattern we are using, you must leave the last free stitch without knitting, in the next chain back to the beginning you must introduce the loop to create holes or circles again, this is do the entire starting chain, try to work on a table to be able to make the stitches correctly, ignore the first hook and do the same again, you will see that the first stitches are already being formed, there are materials that require a lot of care already that once the knot is tied it is difficult to undo them, stretch the thread well.
In the previous image you can see how the knots or hooks are generated to go putting the hand and remove the thread, in many designs figures with impressive reliefs are generated, from a flower to a star, in the photograph below this paragraph it is appreciate an incredible blanket with fringes on the edges and great
stitches that mark the figures, without a doubt an original idea to protect from the bad weather and decorate the bedroom in a unique way
OTHER STITCHES TO CREATE HAND KNITTED BLANKETS In the hand-woven blankets the stitches are called XL, which in English is extra large, not all the stitches are made as in our example, many others are based on generating chains which generates a completely different texture, with
Some incredible styles mix two tones or even three, it all depends on creativity, all the chains in our example are generated in the same way, leaving the edge free and generating the hooks changing direction.
