This blanket was originally designed when Blue Sky Alpacas organic cotton was available in only the 4 or 5 organic colors. The torn cotton fabric edge still works well and adds a personal touch with the fabric you choose. Now with all of the colors available to choose from, the possibilities are endless. Crochet a second color around the edge, follow the directions for the fabric edge using 2 strands of yarn at the same time, or check out our new whipped edge at www.macandme.net.
