I love my fleece robe so much, I made another one for my mum. This time the throw was ribbed and didn't have a fringed edge.

As the weather becomes colder, I love to wrap myself up in a cosy blanket. Burdastyle agrees and includes some soft cuddly patterns in the Dec 09 issue. I especially liked this wrapover jacket.

I used a blue POLARVIDE fleece throw from Ikea and I incorporated the edging into the design. (Partly as there wasn't much fabric to spare.) This is the first time I've used a pattern from a magazine, but this was a nice easy one to try.
