This is a great yarn alternative to use to make a chunky knit blanket for cheap! The Yarn Bee Showstopper yarn is the same weight as Sheps Wool, and I highly suggest you use the Youtube video above as your example for making this blanket. If you don’t want to make arm knit blankets, PVC pipe from Lowes or Home Depot would be the next cheapest option (you tape duct tape at the end to make the “needle.”) Yarn lengths are usually measured in yards or meters, and this information is usually found on the pattern you are working with and/or your ball band. To figure out how much yarn you'll need for your project, find out the total amount of yardage needed (it should say on your pattern) and divide this by the amount of yardage in the ball of the yarn you are wishing to use as a substitute, which will tell you how many balls you will need to substitute the original.

We’re heading into brave territory here – many vintage patterns no longer have yarns available, and the weight they suggest might sound completely foreign. There once was a time that there wasn’t an industry standard of yarn weight, and sometimes the weight instead referred to the number of plies the yarn had. When knitting a vintage pattern, you’ll need to do some research! Look around on the internet for information on the old yarn and see if you can discern the weight. If not, you’ll need to do some serious experimenting with swatching to find the right yarn weight for the pattern. Adorable Queen Bee SVG, Queen Bee Clip Art, Cute Cricut Cut File, Queen for a Day Birthday, Sublimation Design, Girls T-Shirt Design Bound Tutorial & Pattern Book with all the above projects, plus extra patterns for larger throws and blankets, and how to join ends with NO KNOTS!

When it comes to TLC, different fibers need different care. If, say, you’re substituting a yarn for a baby blanket, you might want to use a fiber like acrylic that can be easily popped into the washing machine! Or if, say, you’re making that cool summer tote - you might want to choose a cotton or t-shirt yarn because of its light and breezy finish! Knowing your fibers means you have more power to choose the right substitute to suit your project.
