The blanket comes out soft, warm and cozy - it can be used both as a plaid, and as a bedspread, and as a litter for a picnic.
The blanket is about 100x160 cm in size or slightly larger. Simple cotton fabrics are good for him. Thin batting was used as a heater here - you can take sheet sintepon, for example, or bulk fleece.
