The yarn color is called "Acorn." We made one blanket and have yarn for one more (or a set) because this shade has been discontinued by Berroco. But we love it! This lightweight blanket is made from an elegant yarn that is 100% pima cotton,* so far the only all-cotton yarn we've found that results in nice, soft blanket.
Diana, one of our finest knitters, has been making these pima cotton blankets. see them all
* The creamy sheep on this blanket are currently our normal polyester sheep as we did not have suitable all-cotton yarn available when the blanket was made.
Size: approximately 25 inches (63.5 cm) along each dimension
Care: Officially (from the yarn supplier): hand wash cold, lay flat to dry, no bleach, no iron. However... We've washed and dried all of these blankets already, and tried to knit them a little larger to handle shrinkage. Medium dryer heat is OK, just don't leave it in all the way until it's bone dry. Take it out and lay it flat under a ceiling fan (or in the sun) once it's warm and 50-75% dry and it will be fine.

★★★★★ So soft and perfect color! This beautiful Elms Green Sheep Dreamzzz blanket is the exact color of my Niece's nursery and she is over the moon excited to have it. She kept saying how soft and beautiful it is!
