The size chart below gives the ‘standard’ dimensions of different styles of blanket (whether crocheted or otherwise).Ĭlick here for a simplified PDF version of this chart. How big should a crochet blanket be?īlanket size is normally categorised by intended function of the blanket. So I decided to do a bit of blanket size research and in this post I have collated some common blanket sizes AND a guide to how many stitches you’ll need to start any size blanket, based on your stitch gauge. When making blankets that start with rows, I often eyeball the number of stitches in the first row, but this hasn’t always worked for me and sometimes I’ve needed to make a bigger than intended border to make up the size… sound familiar? I always kind of made up the dimensions in the past – with a centre out or motif based blanket, I tend to just crochet until I am happy with the size. One of the things I always wondered about with blankets was how big they should be. Given the amount of time and effort that goes into them, crochet blankets are such a statement of love. I love making crochet blankets, especially to gift to other people.
