How much yarn do I need for a crochet blanket?

Submitted by Stoutomaster on
Most throw-sized blankets need about 1,500–2,500 yards of yarn. Always check your pattern for specific yardage.

The amount of yarn you’ll need for a crochet blanket depends on the size, stitch pattern, and yarn weight.
On average, a baby blanket uses around 600–1,000 meters (650–1,100 yards), while a throw-sized blanket typically requires 1,500–2,500 yards.
Larger bed-size blankets can take 3,000 yards or more. Always check your pattern for exact yardage, and consider buying an extra skein to ensure consistent dye lots and enough yarn to finish your border or edging.
