Wedding snuggle blanket for two (yes, couples have used my blankets as they exchange vows) makes wonderful wedding gift!
This hand knit, home interiors design decor, fringed accent throw afghan blanket design is a luxury lap warmer for one or two. You custom select from a wide range of colors (shown in cream, brown and green), so it makes the perfect, personalized wedding or engagement gift. I've got plenty of colors to play with, here are some ideas:

The images here were captured by the talented, fun and delightful Ashley of Ashley Mae Photography in Logan, Utah. Ashley writes about the blanket, "I was so impressed when I saw it, it's beautiful - the colors are PERRRFECT.! You have such a unique talent. Love how you put colors together!!"

I use 3 strands of strong, durable yarn for the base (shown here in flecked cream beige, please let me know which colors you'd like for the base of the throw I design specifically for you).
Then I add foot long, thick, beautiful fringe on each end. The fringe shown includes wet bark browns, cottony creams, deep earth, new grass & olive greens, moss, golden amber, wildfire charcoals and so much more. Again, feel welcome to ask me to customize for you!
This richly textured throw blanket is warm without being suffocating and is the perfect size to snuggle one person or a couple (5 feet long including fringe x 3 feet wide to start; it's very elastic because of the special stitch I used, so it easily stretches to wider).
As with most of my work, please just let me know if you'd like yours a little different; custom orders & special requests are welcome and I generally can make a design shorter or longer, use different blanket or fringe colors, etc.
My designs are exceptional quality and a great value; this piece is strong and durable for everyday use for many years.
Only soft, designer, vintage or novelty yarns (vegan). No allergenic animal fibers.
Designed & knit in the clean, fresh, high desert air in the heart of Grand Canyon country, USA (no cigarette, perfume or pet odors)
Hand wash in cool water with mild soap. Dry flat or hang to air dry (no machines, please).
