This feels cozy, like a blanket with sleeves should.
This simple construction yields big results. The back will sit at the waist. If you want longer, here’s where to add it. I suggest 8 ins for mid-bum or an additional 14 ins to go past bum to thigh. This will lengthen the front and sides by the same amount. You will also require additional yarn (1-2 skeins) for this.

Happy knitting,

Joanne
