How many skeins of yarn do I need for a queen size blanket?
If the blanket you are making has only one or a few colors and a basic pattern, you may need around ten yarn skeins. Crocheting a full-sized blanket such as a queen size blanket can take a long time and may need a lot of yarn.
How many balls of yarn does it take to make a blanket?
For a full-size blanket, you will need quite a bit of yarn, probably around 13-18 balls or skeins of yarn. Usually, afghans are very colorful, so you may have one skein of each and, if it’s it’s really colorful, that can add up. If the blanket only has one or a few colors, it may only be 10 skeins.
Is a ball of yarn the same as a skein?
A skein is similar to a ball but it is formed into an oblong shape. It’s the classic shape most people think of when they think of yarn. Yarn can be pulled either from the outside or the inside of a skein of yarn. As you use the skein it will begin to lose its shape and the yarn will be more at risk of tangling.
