[Nfb-krafters-korner] Making A Weighted Blanket

[Henry Osborne]

Hi Daniella again, I do apologize for missing the second part of your 
question regarding the Ribbed Stitch.
The Ribbed stitch is where you knit the first stitch, and purl the second 
one, you repeat this sequence across the row. You then repeat the knit 1 
purl 1 stitches on all other rows.
Regards again.
Henry

Hello everyone,

Thank you for your help. I am new to looming, what is the wrip stitch? How 
do I make a double sided pannel? I do not have a website for looming 
instructions, but ifyou google how to make a weighted blanket, sewing 
instructions, will come up. A weighted blanket is anywhere from 5-20 pounds, 
and it's used for people with anxiety to help calm them down. They also have 
weighted vests. I know this is off topic, but how do I find out information 
about the 2018 NFB convention?

Hello all,
I have just started subscribing to this list, so I am not sure how this 
works. If this is not the right place for my question, sorry about that.
                I have just started looming, and so far I really like it. I 
wanted to make a weighted blanket, but the only things I can find on the 
internet are things you need to sew, and I don’t know how to do that. Does 
anyone know if I could loom tight enough stitches so that stuff wouldn’t 
fall out of it? I am thinking of using glass gems that you can buy from like 
Walmart, or the dollar store, or Polly Pellets like the internet suggests, 
if they are not too expensive. Does anyone know what else I could use as 
well?
                Thank you all for your help!

Daniella
