It's partly open in the back, but it's probably still tight enough around the legs to be a toppling-over hazard for clumsy, forgetful people like me! ;) The pattern designer does have an adult-size blanket too, if you're interested! I'd love one in blue-green shades.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-56899042296773342182015-12-27T12:39:16.904-10:002015-12-27T12:39:16.904-10:00Thanks, Tania!

It's going to be rainy here and I have some time off work -- and a bunch of stuff to watch on the DVR -- so it should be a perfect time for knitting!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-71059924394970508392015-12-27T12:37:02.268-10:002015-12-27T12:37:02.268-10:00The pattern I'm using is also available in adu...The pattern I'm using is also available in adult size!

Now I want to make one immediately, though I'm sure if I was using one I'd forget it's not a regular blanket, jump up to get something, and fall flat on my face. But still, I love it!3goodratshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10352969901692029558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-46466529178340942372015-12-24T12:22:32.687-10:002015-12-24T12:22:32.687-10:00The mermaid tail sounds FUN!

Hopefully she'll love it. <br /><br />I have heard of "This is Your Life, Harriet Chance!" and have been curious about it.
