The hand-made - or rather arm-knitted - throw is set to be one of this winter's hottest home décor items, and the good news is that you can make one yourself in just a few hours. Even better, most good wool stores now stock extra-large knitting needles as well as the extra-chunky wool, cotton or acrylic yarn you will need, so you don't even have to use your actual arms!
Instructions for making your own throw or blanket can easily be found on the internet (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBlzVCaX7HU ) or you may want to try your hand at other arm-knit items like beanies, scarves, jerseys, toys and pet beds (seehttps://www.countryliving.com/diy-crafts/g4268/best-arm-knitting-tutorials/ ).
