I didn’t want the throws to get too heavy so that is why I only used one layer for each.

I found directions on the internet for making the throws without the knots you usually see. Here are the step by step photos and directions I used to make them. Step 2 - Cut 1” slits around the entire edge and a 2” square out of each corner.
