Imagine: Curling up with Hot Cocoa and this Blanket.

About
I made these blankets for Christmas last year. They were a big hit since winter can get really cold here in Michigan. I snuck in a blanket for myself too. Hehe.
NOTE: I am short. So 1.5 yards is a nice size for a large-ish throw/blanket. If you are looking for a bed covering I would say go with 2 yards, which is 6 feet.
