When I first saw a knitting loom all I concept was "what a waste of time". Later I bought one for my granddaughter and she began to make hats on it. This was all well and good for a child but I saw no use for it as an adult.
I already knew how to knit by hand and machine, also I crocheted so this just looked like a toy to me. My sisters bought some looms and were busy production hats for the shelters. I paid little concentration to them until they seemed to be having so much fun. I than bought a cheap set of looms just so I could join them in their fun. I soon realized that a hat could be completed in a fraction of the time it took me to hand knit one. Yes I could knit it on the machine faster but you don't haul a knitting machine to your sisters when the gals are just getting together for a bit.
Afghan Blanket Knitting Pattern
Still I concept ok this is fine for knitting hats but that was all I saw them doing. So plainly I had to start fooling colse to and to see what I could make up also hats and scarves.

I was pleasantly surprised with what could be done on these very basic looms. But the cost of buying a rake or board loo is out of the reach for a lot of people. So I sat down with my son in law and we got talking about how to make a loom.
With a smoothly sanded board and some cotter pins you could make a knitting loom any size or gauge you decide you want. The fine gauge looms are more high-priced than the quarterly gauge so it is beneficial to make your own. You need to space the pins at ¾ inch for a quarterly loom. With this loom you need to use two strands of yarn. Place the pegs ½ inch apart and you can knit a nice baby blanket with one shoreline of 4-ply yarn.
That is when we came up with the Po' Folks loom. It can be made in any size, round or straight. The most important things to remember about a knitting loom or rake knitting is that the wood needs to be flat and the pegs at equal distance whether large gauge or small.
So even if you are using a homemade knitting loom you can make gorgeous hats, scarves, slippers, afghans, sweaters, booties and so much more. Do not limit yourself as I did, try them and find out just how much fun they can be.

My oldest daughter once asked me, "How did you learn to crochet baby blankets?" I told her that my grandmother had taught me the basics of crochet, such as how to make a chain, single crochet, double crochet, etc. I also told her that another good way is to read books, especially pattern books, to learn more of the difficult stitches. (This was before the days of internet research!)
These days I would suggest that anyone wanting to learn how to crochet baby blankets, or any other crochet items, should go online to watch videos. The calculate I suggest videos as opposed to just books is that in the videos you can see how to hold the yarn and hook, as well as any other steps needed to make obvious stitches.

You can also go to Google and type in the words "crochet videos" or "crochet baby blanket videos" to bring up lots of results.
Of course, there are many separate patterns for baby blankets and afghans. Each pattern will have separate stitches that you'll need to learn, if you don't already know how. Most times the patterns will have instructions for the basic stitches and other more industrialized stitches. If you're new to crocheting, I'd suggest starting out with a very basic pattern. I've found fairly easy patterns to effect are granny squares or ripples.
If your pattern calls for stitches that you're not well-known with and the instructions don't seem clear, do another crusade for videos using that exact stitch in your crusade term. For example, in Google or YouTube you might try searching for "double crochet stitch" or "double crochet stitch video."
Another great way to learn is like I did, by having person experienced show you. If you don't have a grandmother, mother, aunt, etc. Who is skilled at crocheting, try request some of the women you join together with such as co-workers, church groups, friends and other house members. Many churches have a time when the ladies get together and bring in their assorted craft projects. This would be a great resource.
Good luck!

Choose sufficient fabric to match the desired length of the blanket. If you will be using it on the bed, allow for overhang that can be tucked in on each side and near the foot end of the bed. Generally add ten to twelve inches onto the length and width of your bed. If you will be adding fringe to your blanket, plan to add an further twelve inches to the blanket's top, bottom, and side dimensions.
Once you have purchased your fabric, turn it upside down on a large table or on the outside of the floor. Trim the edges of the fabric so that they are even. If you planned to create a blanket without fringing, you are done.
Otherwise, use a yardstick and a fabric pen and start drawing horizontal lines about six inches from each edge of the blanket. Next, draw vertical lines down from the horizontal lines. Space these lines about ½ to ¾ of an inch apart depending on your personal preference. Continue this process until every edge has vertical lines from the main line to the edge.
Using fabric shears, cut along each edge. Continue cutting until you have fringe on each side. For a whimsical feel for any child or infant's blanket, use the zig zagged pinking shears.
A polar fleece blanket is the easiest "sewing" project in the universe. It is an excellent craft project for children of all ages, as no needle is required. A cozy fleece blanket can be a thoughtful, easy gift for any occasion. Beat a winter's chill by having a fleece blanket on hand. The best part is that you can tell everybody that you made it yourself.

Granny squares are a classic representation of crocheting. They are all over the place, in afghans, lacy tablecloths, as motifs on women's tops. I have any gorgeous doilies that my great grandmothers made based on the basic granny square. Learning how to crochet granny squares can be a minute tricky, especially if you are a beginner. However, once you learn how, you will be able to turn out many gorgeous projects using this uncomplicated formula.
A few things will help you form out a new crocheting pattern. Keep a completed granny quadrate with you while you are crocheting. It helps to touch it, to look at it from any angles, to see a concrete example of your end goal. Also, keep the whole of the task in mind. Instead of getting bogged down with where to place stitches or if you did it right, think about how they look. Knowing what it should look like will help you recognize when you make mistakes.
Afghan Blanket Knitting Pattern
1. To begin crocheting a granny square, chain (ch) five stitches. Join the ends together with a slip stitch (ss). This makes your base loop. The squares are worked in the round. This means that instead of turning directions at the end of a row, you will connect the ends of your work together and crochet in one continuous circle.
