For me, blankets are like tote bags, you need several kinds because they all serve different purposes. We have vintage Hudson Bay blankets for when the power goes out in the winter , fleece for the backseat of the car for the dog, and cotton for summer. This blanket fills the bill for summer with its size made for tossing over the back of the Adirondack chair or in the boat tote. Pull it out for the trip back to the harbor.
