Blanket costs
Cost to crochet a blanket in the UK: 2026 yarn study
A single-bed crochet blanket (120 × 175cm) in DK costs £23.27 to £197.08 in yarn alone, at the cheaper of Wool Warehouse and LoveCrafts on 2 October 2026. That is HazelLoop’s 2026 blanket cost study: 23 yarns, priced per ball and turned into whole balls for four blanket sizes. The middle (median) DK yarn puts the same blanket at £51 to £71. Below are the costs for baby, lap, single and double blankets in every yarn, and the price per 100 metres that drives them.
What a crochet blanket costs in yarn
In yarn alone, at the cheaper of Wool Warehouse and LoveCrafts on 2 October 2026, a single-bed blanket in acrylic DK costs from £23.27, in Yarnsmiths Create DK on sale. In 100% wool DK it starts at £87.40, in DROPS Karisma, nearly four times as much. A 76 × 76cm baby blanket in acrylic DK costs from £6.76 to £10.14, in Paintbox Yarns Simply DK on sale.
Each figure is a range, because the yarn a blanket needs depends on the stitch. The low end matches the most economical patterns in our blanket guide, such as corner-to-corner, and the high end the yarn-hungry ones, such as granny stripes. The table gives the cheapest acrylic, the median of all the yarns in that weight, the cheapest 100% wool and the dearest yarn we priced, for four blanket sizes.

How we worked it out
Metres per blanket come from our guide How much yarn do I need for a crochet blanket?, which took nine published blanket patterns and worked out how much yarn each used per square metre: 1,780 to 2,530m in DK and 1,110 to 1,570m in aran. We multiplied those figures by each blanket’s area. That gives 1,028 to 1,461m of DK for a 76 × 76cm pram blanket, 2,306 to 3,277m for a 102 × 127cm lap throw, 3,738 to 5,313m for a 120 × 175cm single bed and 4,566 to 6,489m for a 135 × 190cm double mattress top. In aran the figures are 641 to 907m, 1,438 to 2,034m, 2,331 to 3,297m and 2,847 to 4,027m. In Stylecraft Special DK and Special Aran these give the same ball counts as that guide’s table. The quantities come from the designers’ own patterns. HazelLoop has not crocheted these blankets in each yarn.
We priced the 16 yarns in HazelLoop’s yarn list plus seven other UK yarns, to cover acrylic, cotton and wool in DK and aran. For each we opened the product page at Wool Warehouse and LoveCrafts on 2 October 2026, took the single-ball price that most shades were listed at, sale or not, and used the cheaper shop. The one exception is Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/8, Hobbii’s own brand, which is priced at Hobbii. Hobbii lists it as Light, the category that covers DK, so it counts as a DK here, as in our cheapest DK yarn guide.
Hobbycraft is not in the study. We could not read its product prices on 2 October 2026, so we left it out rather than guess. That is a gap in the data, not a finding that Hobbycraft is dearer.
Balls are the metres divided by the length on the ball band, rounded up to whole balls, for a blanket in one colour. Cost is balls times the ball price. The delivered column adds each shop’s standard UK delivery when the order is under its free-delivery threshold. Stylecraft Special 4 Ply and Special Chunky are in the price table only, because our blanket guide has no published patterns in those weights to take metres from.
Every yarn, every size
The full table lists 21 DK and aran yarns, cheapest first for a single bed. The ball counts show how much the ball size matters. Sirdar Happy Cotton comes in 20g balls of 43m, so a single-bed blanket needs 87 to 124 of them. Stylecraft Special DK needs 13 to 19.
Hayfield Bonus Aran holds 256m per 100g, against 196m for Stylecraft Special Aran, so it needs fewer balls than the other arans. A longer yarn for its weight is usually a thinner one, so swatch it before you swap it into an aran pattern.

Price per 100m is the number to compare
A ball price on its own tells you little, because balls hold anything from 43m to 422m. Divide the price by the metres on the band and multiply by 100, and the yarns line up. On 2 October 2026 the median of the six acrylic DKs we priced was 74p per 100m. The four cotton DKs had a median of £1.82 and the three 100% wool DKs £3.33, four and a half times the acrylic.
The cheapest were Paintbox Yarns Simply DK at 61p and Yarnsmiths Create DK at 62p per 100m, both on sale. The dearest was King Cole Merino Blend DK at £3.64. In aran, Hayfield Bonus Aran (92p) and Stylecraft Special Aran (96p) came in under £1, both on sale at LoveCrafts with few shades in stock.

Acrylic, cotton or wool: how far apart
For a single bed in DK, the six acrylics ran from £23.27 to £64.80 in yarn. The four cottons ran from £53.70 to £125.24, and the three 100% wools from £87.40 to £197.08. Stylecraft Life DK, 25% wool, sat between them at £47.45 to £65.70. LoveCrafts lists King Cole Merino Blend DK as 100% wool, apart from its dotted shades, which are 96% wool and 4% viscose.
Aran tells the same story. A single bed costs £22.56 to £46.80 in the three acrylic arans, £64.60 to £91.20 in DROPS Alaska, a 100% wool, and £69.72 to £107.25 in the two cotton arans. The median aran single bed was £54 to £75, close to the DK median of £51 to £71, so moving up to aran doesn’t by itself make a blanket dearer.
For care labels, weight and how each fibre behaves, see our acrylic, cotton and wool blanket guide.
Sales, multi-buys and delivery
Several of the cheapest prices were sales on 2 October 2026. At full price, the cheapest single-bed acrylic DKs were Stylecraft Special DK at £30.55 to £44.65 (£2.35 a ball, the same as Yarnsmiths Create DK’s full price) and King Cole Big Value DK at £30.94 to £44.03 (£1.19 for 50g). Paintbox Yarns Simply DK at its full £2.60 would be £36.40 to £52.00.
Stock was thin on two of the sale arans. Stylecraft Special Aran was £1.88 at LoveCrafts, down from £2.35, but only 12 of its 50 shades were in stock. Hayfield Bonus Aran was £2.36 on 46 of its 60 shades, but only 7 of those were in stock, while 14 other shades, all in stock, were £1.58. Stylecraft Life DK also had 8 shades at £3.10. We used the price most shades were listed at, so these cheaper shades are not in the tables.
LoveCrafts takes a percentage off 10, 20 or 30 balls of the same colour. On full-price yarns it was 10%, 15% and 20%, or 15%, 20% and 25% on Paintbox Yarns. On sale yarns it was 5%, 7.5% and 10%, and on sale Paintbox yarns 10%, 12.5% and 15%. Where the shade has the stock, 19 balls of Special DK come to about £40.19 there with free delivery, and 36 to 52 balls of King Cole Merino Blend DK fall from £136.44–£197.08 to £109.15–£157.66. Hobbii charges 88p a ball for 12 or more Rainbow Cotton 8/8, so a single bed costs £44.00 to £62.48. The tables leave these discounts out, so every yarn is priced the same way, at the single-ball price.
Standard UK delivery on 2 October 2026: Wool Warehouse £3.45, free over £30; LoveCrafts £3.50, free over £40; Hobbii from £3.99, free from £29.99. Delivery is added to 6 of the 21 single-bed orders at the low end of the range and 4 at the high end. For a pram blanket it is added to 20 of the 21 orders at the low end, and for a lap throw to 11.
How this fits with our other price checks
Our cheapest DK yarn guide, checked a day earlier on 1 October 2026, also priced The Wool Factory, Mill Outlets, Hobbii and Hobbycraft. It found Knitco DK at 41p per 100m and a single bed from £16.39 in yarn at The Wool Factory, and Hayfield Bonus DK there at £1.69. This study keeps to Wool Warehouse and LoveCrafts, so its cheapest single bed, £23.27, is higher. Where the same yarn and shop appear in both, the prices match, and both use the same 3,738 to 5,313m for a single bed, so Stylecraft Special DK comes to 13 to 19 balls and £30.55 to £44.65 in each.
The acrylic, cotton and wool guide, also checked on 1 October 2026, priced one middle figure of 4,305m for a single bed, so where the ball price is the same its costs sit inside the ranges here. Some yarns were cheaper this time at another shop or in a sale. That guide used Wool Warehouse’s £2.49 for Hayfield Bonus DK, £1.29 for Sirdar Happy Cotton and £3.99 for King Cole Merino Blend DK; LoveCrafts had them at £1.91 and £1.01 on sale and £3.79. For West Yorkshire Spinners ColourLab DK it used the maker’s own shop at £7.95; here it is £7.49 at Wool Warehouse.
