Grey Blanket


Hi! I've had this blanket finished for a while now, but just didn't know whom to donate it to. Earlier today, I was visiting crochetville, and I saw this thread about a wonderful woman who is gathering up 100 blankets to be given to men and women in a local nursing home for Christmas. So, I'm packaging this one up to send to her, as it's a good lapghan size, probably for a man. What a great project! Thank you for the work you do, and for letting me help out! I'll be sending more, I hope! It is made using fleece I purchased from Wal-Mart (you've got to love the remnants' section hehe), and some "I love this yarn" purchased from Hobby Lobby. I really do love that yarn, because it makes a neat self striping type thing, and it is very soft. It was also purchased on sale. :)

Thanks Sissie, this is a very nice, thick blanket. :) I don't know how necessary it is during summer, but it'll be a nice small throw for winter for sure. Thank you so much for the sweet comment! You have an amazing project going too! It is such a wonderful feeling to give... There is so much need in the world. Thanks again!
