Choosing the right size knitting needles for your blanket project can be a bit of a puzzle. Generally, larger needles (like size 13 to 15) are used for blankets to create larger, looser stitches. The yarn weight also plays a key role in determining needle size. As a rule of thumb, heavier yarns require larger needles. Always remember to do a test swatch to check your gauge and adjust needle size if necessary.

Knitting after multiple slip stitches can be a challenging task, but it is possible. The key is to have the right tools and to take your time. First, it is important to use a stitch marker to mark the number of stitches you will be slipping. Then, begin to slip the stitches one at a time, taking care that each stitch is slipped through the back loop. After slipping the required number of stitches, use the right needle to insert it into the next stitch and knit it as normal. Finally, remove the stitch marker and continue knitting. With practice, it should become easier to knit after multiple slip stitches.
