Personalized Repeated Name & Date BlanketThe name itself becomes the pattern. It repeats across the whole blanket, with the birth date knit in - so the design is entirely made of the details that matter. It is the most specific piece we make, and the one most often kept rather than passed on.

- Plus a Date field - entered and knit in numerals
- Lettering is Arial with the name in Mixed-Case - fixed for this design, so there is no font to choose

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the date formatted? In numerals, as you enter it. Most people use the birth date, though a wedding or adoption date works the same way.
Why no font choice? Because the lettering is the pattern rather than a label on it, the repeat has to be set precisely. It is knit in Arial every time.
Does a longer name look better? Shorter names repeat more times and give a denser pattern. Longer names give fewer, larger repeats. Both work - it just changes the scale.
Is this suitable for anything other than a birth? Yes. A name and a date covers a wedding, an anniversary or a graduation just as well, particularly in the throw sizes.
