Janie, you said you did baby blankets. Do you think you could make one bigger from baby yarn? It would be so much lighter, you could make it in grownup pretrty colors and a design that would make the lady feel loved and looked after and not a child. Make a little bag from the same yarn, [ even use 2 strands for a bag] to fasten to the side of the chair. Try it And see if you would like it. Huggs. Margaret
