Our throw knits up quickly on large needles and using two strands of yarn held together which gives a chunkier texture and lofty feel to the blanket. The blanket is knitted using Garter Stitch (This is when you knit each row), and Stockinette Stitch (This is when you knit first row and purl second row). This blanket is knitted in 3 long panels and then sewn together.
