Boo Diddly Blanket! Are you looking for a blanket that will watch you when you sleep? Every time you close your eyes this cuddly blanket will be drawn towards you! Don’t be scared of its smile, it just wants to envelop you in a warm hug.
This blanket was made with over 200 squishy granny squares which were slip stitched together to create a textured “wrong side.” It is so soft and warm that its crafter Marisha constantly had to battle the desire to take a nap once the project was big enough to cover her legs.
