Yarn Arts
Receiving a knotted fleece blanket is like getting a "warm hug". These blankets are two pieces of fleece held together by knots around the edges. The same technique is used for pillows. The children at Valerie's House love Sew & Sews' blankets. Blankets are also given as Christmas gifts to mothers through Verandah's Visions of Sugar Plums
