When I have to fight my diva  cat for the blanket, then I know that I made a good choice.  I have been searching for something similar to a thermal blanket but fell in love with this knit blanket the moment it caught my eye.  It is a beautiful blanket, lightweight, yet nice and warm for cool evenings.  I'm pairing it up with flannel sheets this winter and anxious (well, not too anxious for winter but) to see if the combination will keep me snuggly warm.  It winter has to come, I'm going to do it in style!
