I made this one for me, using the same process as the one I made for my brother. So warm! :)

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.

  5. 5

    Pull the blanket right ways out through the opening. Like you are making a GIGANTIC pillow.
