Every sweet little soul deserves a cuddly blanket. This one was designed for my rescue cat, Lily, and features the fun dual-ply yarn Starke 6 by Schoppel-Wolle. Combining this with a cozy solid color of Sueño by HiKoo® results in a classic blanket that can be cherished for generations.

Of course, if you don’t have a rescue pet, the small blanket is also the perfect gift for a newborn human baby. Want a blanket for you? Consider making the larger size. It’s ideal for lazy afternoons on the sofa cuddling with your favorite little one (rescued or otherwise).
