Using this knit blanket club kit is easy. Start with the first kit and follow the printed pattern instructions that come with each shipment. Work on your blanket a little each month as you receive new skeins of yarn. When it comes to maintenance, since the yarn is made of 100% superwash Merino wool, you can machine - wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach. After washing, reshape the blanket and lay it flat to dry to keep its shape. Also, keep in mind that your subscription auto - renews between the 10th and 15th of each month, so make sure you have enough funds in your payment method. Enjoy creating your beautiful 40.5' x 54.75' blanket!
