  Hi Emma,
  
  The “yarn” is actually unspun wool roving you have to felt slightly before knitting. You can get all the info you need on this page: http://nocturnalknits.com/about/giganto-blanket-faq/ Check out “Where can I buy the wool?” for the links. thanks!

Laura,

Love the blanket! I also adore your dining table. Is it a custom piece?
Thanks for sharing!

  Hi Christine — thanks so much! And I love my table, too! It’s not custom — I bought it off the floor at Mortise & Tenon in L.A. http://www.mortisetenon.com/

I must make this blanket! I can knit, but I’m not sure about felting. What will I need to do to start!? (Other than buy the yarn.)

  Hi Kim — the felting is pretty simple. All you need is a bathtub and some sheets, really. The pattern lays it out in detail!
