Notes

Blanket in two panels in summer/winter. Sheep motif matches the quilt made earlier in the year. Color (wine/beige) matches quilt also.
Could be woven on 8 shafts, but because the dobby needs even heddle distribution, it is being woven on 13.
Ground tabby and warp Jaggerspun 8/2 heather. Pattern is Lanaloft sport from Brown sheep.

Blanket completed

Both halves stitched together with the Lanaloft yarn. Wet finished with minimal fulling to keep it soft and pliable. Trimmed with binding made from faux suede fabric - makes a sturdy finish that is soft and cuddly.
