About this deal

Cotton tube yarn is hypoallergenic. Cotton and polyester are materials that are safe for people with sensitive skin and allergies.

Fill: As a practical matter, you'll want fill that's already basically in "rope" form since it would be time consuming to form it into a rope as you go, and difficult to make it a uniform density if you're forming it from a big wad. You might be able to buy fiberfill "rope" on a big reel. If not, you could use something else for fill. Examples: Secure the free end of the string so you can pull against it. So you should have a length of string secured at one end, then running through a tube of fabric and attached to the far end of the fabric tube. Now you're ready to start making the tube yarn.When my kids were young we LOVED doing simple yarn activities like cardboard circle weaving, or finger knitting. This genius cardboard paper tube knitting is another fun and creative activity that I’ve enjoyed doing with my kids. One of our favorite craft activities are recycled projects using things around the house like toilet paper tubes. What we love best about this activity is that it’s simple, inexpensive, and calming. Now you’ll start creating knit stitches, which is the simple stitch you’ll repeat to hand knit the whole blanket. You are ready to start your first row, working toward the left. Each time you start a new row, you will skip the first loop, which is the last one you just made. This gives you a more finished edge on each side of the blanket. It can be hard to figure out how much yarn you’ll need, because it will vary depending on how big of a blanket you’d like to make and how loose or tight you make your stitches. But I’ll share what I used for both my own blankets so you have an idea: We sell our Big Cotton tube yarn by weight. Each skein weighs 1.1 lbs / 0.5 kg and is about 57 ft / 689 in / 17.5 m / 19 yds. All of our yarn is weighted by hand, so slight variations may occur. The solution I came up with is generally similar to Chris H's. The work flow is a little different, so I'll post it so you have some variation to play with.

The thread itself, and so the products created from the cotton tube yarn, look very neat and high-end. Cotton is a natural material, and natural materials are highly-valued. They always look more beautiful than synthetics. In the past few years, I’ve made a number of finger knit blankets using loop yarn, and I love them! But I wanted to make a really chunky blanket this time, using a super fat yarn. I’d heard of arm knitting, but it just seemed confusing to me, and I know you can use super fat needles, but since I’ve never knit with needles before that seemed confusing too. A bundle of strips of loosely-twisted cloth cut from rags, or odds and ends that a fabric shop wants to get rid of. Material like jersey, fleece, or old flannel will have some bulk and softness. But even strips of thinner, flat fabric, like old sheets, will work when they are loosely twisted and then bundled. Stagger where individual pieces start and end, but you don't need to go to great lengths to secure the ends together.

Supplies

All you need to make a chunky hand knit blanket is some super chunky yarn and maybe a needle and thread for joining balls of yarn together. That’s it! No knitting needles required. What’s the Best Yarn to use? Our Big Cotton tube yarn is both beautiful and durable! We know frustrating it can be to buy something nice and then have it fall apart after normal wear and tear. We also know what it's like to have kids and pets and feel the tug of war between have something pretty or something practical. With our Big Cotton tube yarn, you can have both! As mentioned before, there's finally a high-quality chunky yarn option for vegans. Before the cotton tube yarn was introduced, there were very few options, like acrylic fibers or polyester fibers, however, the composition of 100% synthetic fibers, didn't provide strength and structure for the thread. If you're making the fill from relatively short pieces, you can pre-make long ropes so it's ready to use when you make the tube yarn.

Enclose the string on the inside. So that it doesn't get lost, attach one end of the string to one end of the fabric ribbon in the middle of the width of the ribbon (where the ribbon is folded in half). Use a few strong stitches to secure the string. Stretch out the fabric ribbon and string to ensure that the string is longer than the fabric when the fabric is flat.String: You need one piece of string or twine that is longer than the first section of tube. This should be smooth and "slippery" rather than rough twine like sissal. The cotton tube yarn is durable. The thread is strong, so the products are great for pets, kids, and for more heavy daily use. The polyester filling keeps its shape, and will not get flat or uneven. It'll look the same for a long, long time. Fabric ribbon: The circumference of the tube will be 22/7 times the diameter. Add about 3/4" to 1" to that for seaming, and that will be the width of the ribbon needed to make the tube. The longer the ribbon, the fewer joints you'll need along the length. Below is an estimate for how many skeins are typically needed for some popular projects. These are just estimates and actual amounts will depend on the yarn, the project, and the creator. The bigger the project, the bigger the variation possible. If in doubt, we recommend purchasing an extra skein (or 2)!

Our Big Cotton tube yarn is perfect for a variety of projects, including but not limited to: blankets, pillows, baby boats, pet beds, wreaths, baskets. For the tube yarn blanket you can see below, I used 10.5 lbs of tube yarn, which was approximately 250 yards. My stitches were slightly smaller for that blanket, just over 2 inches. That blanket measures 50×54 inches. If I made it again, I’d make it slightly narrower, maybe 46 inches in width, so that it would be a bit longer and more of a rectangle than a square. The cotton tube yarn has a very simple composition. The outside part of the yarn is cotton, and the inside part is filled with polyester. The cotton is strong, durable, and gentle. The polyester is puffy, retains its structure, and provides chunkiness. These two materials combined is a perfect combination that provides comfort and looks. Make sure to watch the video in this post to watch the weaving steps as that part is the hardest to comprehend at first. Watching it visually is the best way to learn.Stay Cozy's Big Cotton tube yarn is a luxury tube yarn that provides a unique and modern way to create.
