- Description
- Wrap yourself up in a gorgeous handwoven blanket that features a minimalist and modern approach to colour.
For this blanket design, Felecia wanted to create something that could be woven on a compact 4-shaft loom and still be wide enough to serve beautifully as a lap blanket. Woven at 24 inches (61 cm) wide in the reed, this blanket opens up to about 48 inches (122 cm) but then settles down to 42 inches (107 cm) wide after wet finishing. It’s a perfect size to cozy under for Netflix and knitting sessions.
