      You mean at the end of the first chain? You leave the end loop and if you go through the first you just pull that loop out that is why you start at the second top. Then you grab the loop when you come back on the next row. I hope that helps

      @@thehivetopeka This.. this perhaps need the backstory? My former degree program was in Hazardous Material Technology. And we were taught about materials that would react on their own and introducing a flame would further the reaction, right? Well, a couple years later, I was all into organic gardening, but there were some invasive plants that needed to GO! Being male, albeit a gay man but still male, I researched recipes for "home weed killers". The first worked decently. So, I mixed about three different home recipes TOGETHER. I figured if one was good, just mix them altogether, right? I mixed them all into an approved container with spray apparatus. And the container began heating up, MAJORLY. I was like... oh crap!...I moved it to the backyard with oven mitts. I checked on it later that night, and it was hotter than ever, and thought it best to move it to an empty field next to my house. It took two days for that concoction to stop reacting and the heat to dissipate. I stay away from lighting things on fire and chemicals these days. LOL

      Everybody’s blanket can be different by the size of loops. The bigger the loops the bigger the blanket but also the “holey” it is- the smaller the loops the smaller the blanket. I use 8 balls mine is 30 yard in each ball. Find a happy medium loop and my guesstimate would be 12

Both using 8 skeins but they are BIG! So big that I am going to make a couple lap blankets & I think 6 will work for that. I watched another video and she used 15 loops to make a lap blanket. I've also read where someone used 18 loops so IDK but I will probably do 18. We'll see! I'd love to see yours or know how many loops you used. My first one is a beautiful blue and the second one is yellowish gold which my house is decorated kind of beachy themed! LOL LMK how it goes! I love looking at pictures too! Can hardly wait for Monday so I can get some yarn on sale. I have 2 birthdays in March that I want to make one for each! :) Take care and Happy Saturday from Northern California! :)

      Yes! Just tie a knot when adding a new skein & pull as tight as you can. I have YET to break it like she did by pulling it but then I clip off the excess from the knot on both sides as close as I can and pull any loose freys, then keep going. However, for me, I am going to start burning & melting mine together because it will be a cleaner look or I may not be able to tell. Who knows but it's easier to me! HAVE FUN! :)

LOL That's the great part, when I got down to the end, I took that one out of the bag and just undid it! They are just loops and come undone really easy if you make a mistake while going along! I LOVE THAT! LOL GO FOR IT & Have some FUN! :) I buy my yarn at Hobby Lobby because it's 30% off every other week which makes them about $5.60 a Skein. EASY PEASY! Please GO FOR IT!!
