Round blankets are a great way to get rid of unused stashes of yarn, because as you work your way from the center, you can start with much shorter lengths of yarn. But, and it’s a big but, they are a great design in their own right. They are much better suited to spaces that are closer to square than rectangular, and also add a fluid, organic look to modern, straight-edged interiors and, of course, the possibilities of modifying them are endless, so you can really express yourself through such a project.
