Arm knitting uses large, loose stitches, so yarn usage can vary more — but you can still estimate with this formula:

👉 Formula (inches & pounds):
(Length × Width) ÷ 360 = yarn needed (lbs)

👉 Formula (cm & kg):
(Length × Width) ÷ 2300 = yarn needed (kg)

Example:
A 40 × 75 inch blanket:
(40 × 75) ÷ 360 = ~8.3 lbs of yarn

For arm knitting, it’s recommended to add extra yarn depending on stitch looseness. Most arm knit blankets require around 8–10 lbs (3.5–4.5 kg) for a standard size.
