This chain is the foundation for your chunky knit blanket, so as wide as you want your blanket to be, is as wide as you make your length of chain stitches.

If you are making a knitted squares blanket, you can easily adjust the size at any stage in your project by changing the number of rows or columns in your blanket.

I remember how intimidated I was by the idea of knitting a huge blanket before I got my first one on the needles. NB if your blanket uses a repeating stitch pattern, remember to still use a number of stitches that divides evenly. So if you are knitting an heirloom blanket as a labour of love, it’s worth using the best yarn you can afford. Holding that one loop in your left hand, grab another loop from the blanket and pass it to your left hand.
