Pattern Description:
Plush and snuggly blankie for precious little ones! Choose either a pastel or neutral colorway. The Marshmallow Dreams Blankie is worked with Pluma held double strand for a boost of fluffy volume and one strand of Comfort for strength and stability. Pluma is a brushed-effect cotton blend yarn with mohair-like fuzziness, but with the soft, comfortable finish of cotton.

Perfectly soft and sumptuous blankie for every baby every day!
