Tia Mary, I made a lovely fleece knee rug for my Auntie by using a layer of
fleece and a layer of pretty printed wintella (thin brushed cotton). It was
plenty warm enough and just the right dainty thing for an elderly lady! I didn't
fringe the rug, but stitched the layers together and then blanket stitched them
by hand using perle cotton. Now, my Auntie's passed away and I wonder who wound
up with the rug I made her...
