The weight of the blanket depends not only on the size of the blanket, but on the size of the child. You want to do some research on the recommended weight (or get a recommendation from a medical professional) before making one.
I was going to point this out as well. My XSIL worked with Autistic children and their families for many years and these are covered through most insurance companies and Medicare.
