Re: I’m Addicted To Throws!!!

My sister is too.  She's always cold and she loves her throws.  I give her one every Christmas, this year I found a Christmas theme throw that has kitties that look like her cat and the kitties are wearing Santa hats.  She's going to love it.  I'll give it to her before Christmas this year.

Me too.  I use them for all seasons decor.  Have so many colors from pier1 imports.

Re: I’m Addicted To Throws!!!

I have more than I will ever need and can´t stop buying. I just sent some to four kids in California and gave two to my niece and nephew yesterday. Of course I had to order a few more of the exact type to replace what I gave away.

 

I don´t need them but I love them. I was wondering why then I came across an article yestersay about Taureans (Apri; 21st- May 21st) can´t resist a throw. I couldn´t believe it. Now i feel better.

 

I´m as stubborn as a Bull and no one can stop me from buying a throw lol.

 

I discovered the Berkshire brand from QVC and I love them all.

Re: I’m Addicted To Throws!!!

@qualitygal, 60x70 and 50x70 are two goods sizes. They really do the job. I recently bought 60x80  and that can almost cover a twin bed.

 

Aren´t those sizes a lot for you to crochet? What sizes do you usually make?

 

Don´t know if you have ever done this but I found some labels?? that said ¨handmade with love¨ and I sew them on the items I make

Re: I’m Addicted To Throws!!!

Just want to say thank you for bringing the Charter clubs throws to my attention.  I picked one up and love it.  Cozy. It was a steal at 11 bucks.  I went back for more and they were no longer on sale and most patterns gone. I love that they are big enough to cover the feet when laying down. 

 

Thank you.

Guess who.jpgMy granddoggie is also addicted to throws!  After stealing his Daddy's throw, he now owns several of his own--on the couch, in his bed, and on his favorite chair!

Re: I’m Addicted To Throws!!!

Yes, and the softer the better. When I'm in a department type store I'm forever stopping and touching the various throws.

 

Our two cats love them even more than I do. For some reason squishy throws seem to be the best kneading material. And I'd much prefer they do that than knead on my stomach!
