A fleece blanket with tied edges is quick to make, very attractive, and lightweight. You need 2 fleece fabrics - contrasting fabrics look best. One fabric is for the top, and one is for the back which makes them reversible. Make 4-5" cuts into the fleece along the edges on both fabrics. Align them and make a knotted tie (make sure it lies flat) with each set of strips. Experiment with length of strips to get the size correct for the look you want to achieve.
