When I was making my brother a blanket for his new home, he requested no tassels, no holes, no border. You know, because of the cat. And it has to be extra tall since he’s about 6’ 3”. And it has to be a lighter weight so he doesn’t just sweat all winter under the thing. Voila! I made up my own pattern that hit all the marks and showed off the stunning Mandala Tweed Stripes yarn. This beginner-friendly blanket has wonderful drape, is fairly light for a blanket this size, and you could make it in any colors, even using scrap yarn.
