Summer Blanket Wrap

Summer Blanket Wrap
" I am a year round blanket snuggler! When it is hot outside, I can still get chilly indoors and this blanket wrap is perfect to stay warm, but not hot. CYC weight 3 yarn keeps it light, especially if you use cotton or bamboo yarn! I love to use x stitches. They are so repetitive without being boring and provide a nice dimension to the project. I love to take this blanket on vacation because it's nice to curl up on the couch with and a perfect second layer on the bed at night. (Because vacation rentals are always chilly and never have cozy blankets.) "
