    as i recall, it was a fleece blankie.

    i would use it for a fleece watchcap. you know, the kind that's usually black wool knit and has an all-round cuff. i've seen patterns for it, but you could probably copy the cap from an existing one. they're very easy. a self-lined tube that's sewn with four seams at the top. long enough to turn upthe bottom edfe.

    maybe a matching scarf with a fringe end.

    if your'e making dh a matching blankie, save the goodies for him.

    Hi again from Springfield.
    I used the same fabric for all the 3 grandson's blankets and backed it with Patriot fleece. The boys loved them and they are holding up extremely well. Their Dad's wanted them too.
    I used the leftovers for the winter fleece caps that butterflywing described. About 2 squares tall by 3 1/2 wide. I gathered the top and inserted the strips I cut from the small words RED SOX, about 5 or six cuts. Also made scarves. Another thought for little baby boys is a Taggie: 15/16 inch square with all different textures of 2 1/2 inch ribbons folded in half and attached envelope style. Susan

    I know nothing about sports, but what about a pillow to sit on at the

    game? Even a pillow for two! What about a pillow to leave in the car?

    How about a knee cover for the game?

    A stadium blanket or a slip cover for his game seat cushion. Or how about a tote bag for all his goodies? How about a car blankie?

    We don't go to the games...brother-in-law doesn't either...tickets are too expencive for us. I'd love to go to Fenway one day though, only about 3 1/2 hours from me.
