"My Dolphin Blanket is another one that was completed in my Animal Series of Blankets (check out my blog for some cute animal Blankets). This blanket was made specifically for a girl, that's a tween. It measures 39" wide and 50" from top of the hoodie to the bottom. I used Bernat Blanket Yarn in Country Blue. It has a button at the neck to wear as a cape. The side fins can be used as gloves. And, of course, it folds up, slips under the hoodie and becomes a pillow. I love, love versatility!!!!"
NotesThis was a commissioned project for a little girl who got the opportunity to swim with dolphins last summer while traveling western Caribbean. Her sister wanted a memorable birthday gift to give her this month for her birthday. I think blankets like this leave a lasting impression in a child's heart and they will cherish it.
