Also, Butterick currently has a pattern,#B5536, for a shawl and a comfy blanket. The long one is like the ones I used to make during the energy crisis in the 70's. They can be used flat or wrapped, as you need them.

They would make a nice gift for the elderly, especially for someone in nursing home too.
