Can you make a blanket with a knitting loom?
You can even knit a blanket using a round loom. Instead of knitting around and around to form a tube, you’ll knit to a certain point then turn the crank the other direction and work the other way. By doing this, you will create flat panels of fabric which you can piece together to form a blanket.
How long does it take to loom a blanket?

What is a 10 stitch blanket?
