Treat them as a single loop again when you come back to them on the next row. The method that I found the easiest is to hold the last loop of your previous skein and first loop of your new skein together and work as if they are a single loop. There are a couple of ways to join a new skein. Continue with your rows until you need to add a new skein. Second row: Working from right to left, pull the next loop from working yarn up from behind through last stitch worked on previous row. Continue until your first row has been connected to a loop from the second row. Pull your next loop from your working yarn up through next loop on your foundation row. Working from left to right, pull the 66th loop from your ‘working yarn’ up through the 65th loop (last loop of foundation row) to create a knit stitch. Place your working yarn with the loops facing up in a row behind your foundation row of 65 loops. I used a plastic Christmas ornament hanger. Mark your 65th loop with a safety pin or clip of some sort. To begin, count out 65 loops for your foundation row. After you have 4 or 5 rows completed, you can move over to the sofa to work while you’re binge watching your favorite Netflix series. Start on a table or desk where you can lay your yarn out flat and count off your loops to get started. After the first few rows, you easily get into a rhythm. It’s a perfect project for when you’re stuck indoors and one you can finish over a weekend. I loved it so much I bought more yarn to make a second throw as a gift! The Alize chenille yarn is SO soft and comes in pretty variegated colors as well as solids. You’ll need 6 skeins (108 yards total) to make a throw approximately 51 x 60- inches. The Alize Blanket EZ yarn comes in 18 yard skeins and is considered a jumbo size #7 gauge yarn. I used Bernat Alize Blanket-EZ yarn that I found at JOANN fabric and craft store. I’m not a knitter or crocheter so this project had lots of appeal: no needles or hooks, fancy stitches or counting required beyond your first row of loops, using only your fingers.
