MADE WITH HOMBYS
A Quiet Moment with a Sage & Cream Loom Blanket
When the house grows quiet, a new blanket begins. Creator Shiloh, @the_studio_by_shiloh, shared a peaceful pocket of making time with a wooden knitting loom and soft, green-and-cream chunky chenille yarn.
Her original video follows the blanket taking shape on the loom. Sage-green and creamy white sections run through the same plush strand, creating a softly mottled fabric as the oversized stitches build. The warm wooden pegs and fluffy yarn make every close-up wonderfully tactile.
The Story Behind the Project
In her caption, Shiloh described starting a blanket while her children slept and the house was quiet. With an hour of nap-time peace, she chose to spend it with her loom and yarn—a small moment of creativity in a busy day.
Watch her original video above for a closer look at the setup, the variegated strand, and the rows forming along the wooden pegs. This post captures a work in progress, with the focus on the pleasure of making.

YARN PLANNING · REFERENCE ESTIMATE
How much yarn should I prepare?
Reference size: 50 × 60 in (127 × 152 cm). Scope: one finished item.
Whole-skein color budget: approximately 9–12 skeins in total, including one spare in the largest yarn group. Whole-skein rounding by color can exceed the estimated amount actually knitted.
Estimated fabric consumption before the spare: about 7.1–10.7 skein-equivalents across all colors. Small accents may use only part of a skein.
| Yarn / color group | Whole-skein planning budget |
|---|---|
| Sage Green Multi | 9–12 whole skeins At 8 skeins / pack: 2 pack(s). Full packs may leave yarn over. |
Planning assumptions: single-layer blanket. Area model uses 350 square inches per 27 yd skein as a working assumption, scaled to the listed skein length; ±20% allowance, plus one spare after rounding each color. Decorative / texture factor: 1. This is not a tested yield or the maker’s confirmed usage.
Color split: Sage Green Multi 100%. These are illustrative planning shares, not measured original proportions. Mixed / gradient product rows are combined yarn groups; their full pack size is not a claim of project consumption. Check pack contents and top up individual colors as needed.
Before buying: swatch in the intended stitch, measure the finished swatch and yarn used, then scale to your chosen size. The reference size above is an assumption unless marked maker-reported. These figures do not establish the original finished size or actual yarn used.
