I have knitted many scarves in this type of yarn and also a cushion cover. It takes a while to get used to what to do with it, but once you've mastered it its ok! You could probably make a throw, though you'd have to experiment. There were some patterns for a rug and floor cushion in the June issue of simply knitting that you may be able to adapt. If you decide to knit strips, you'd need a smooth yarn in matching colour for sewing up. Hope this helps and good luck! Janine
