Inspired by my favorite band for the last 25 years, 311. The Tune In blanket is fast, fun, and beginner-friendly. If you have always wanted to weave something, this is the blanket for you!

Size:
32 by 44 inches (81 by 112 cm).

Skill Level: Easy. Requires chain, single crochet, and double crochet stitches. Includes a photo tutorial.

Yarn: dk weight (light, category 3).

You will need about 1,770 yards (1,620 meters) of yarn. You can use any yarn you like. Use the hook size recommended on the label.

The sample blanket used 3 cakes of Lion Brand Mandala yarn (100% acrylic; 590 yards (450 m) per 150-gram cake) in the colorway Sirens.

Two cakes are used for the blanket base (1,180 yards / 1,620 m) and the 3rd cake is used for the weaving strips and border. You can use scraps for the weaving strips and border if you prefer (see pattern for yarn requirements). Add a new cake whenever the old one runs out. Go with the flow of color changes- no cutting or controlling of colors needed.

Sizing: The pattern repeat is 6 stitches. To make a wider blanket, add stitches to your starting chain in multiples of 6. To make a narrower blanket, subtract stitches from your starting chain in multiples of 6.

To make an adult throw blanket, about 44 by 64 inches (112 by 162 cm), work Rows 4-69 again and make your weaving strips 270 stitches long.

“You’re a power spot rotating, ever-changing
Transmitting like a radio wave frequently feeling
What’s goin’ on times are weird all this static
Things erratic seems like we lost the magic
See hear how clear is inner quality
A yin and yang type of thang sacred geometry
Ascending mad energy crazy bad
You’re something NASA f***** wish they had

Tune in for those who are wantin’
Vision feel it from within, sing along
Tune in for those who are wantin’
Vision feel it from within

You’re a star creator soul craft generator
Movin’ through time and space son you’re a liberator
But your memory has been erased
The things you knew misplaced check it out
Babylon life style we scorn
Now we live again In L.A. Tokyo and New York
Come on pay a fee smoke your booty weed
Put gas in your tank keep your city bumpin’

Tune in for those who are wantin’
Vision feel it from within, sing along
Tune in for those who are wantin’
Vision feel it from within

Tune in for those who are wantin’
Vision feel it from within, sing along
Tune in for those who are wantin’
Vision feel it from within“
