This is a cute little blanket. There's a little more detail to the pattern than you expect given the photos. It's still primarily rich, slightly navy blue, but there are grey and almost forest green accents. They're small and and adds some interest to the pattern. Some people mentioned that it's stiff - I'd disagree with that, it just feels like it needs to be lived in a bit before it gets that comfy quilt feel. It is a little lighter than I thought it would be, though. Overall, a great piece.
