This throw was designed as a request by my husband. He wanted a blanket with weight and comfort, not unlike the protective lead blanket they lay over you at the dentist before an Xray!

Using the Merino roving from Wool Dryer Balls on Etsy, this blanket weighed in at 21 lbs. As this is a throw, any super chunky yarn, just be sure to swatch!
