[quote=Anonymous]OP I think you are getting an inaccurate view of whether this is a good idea. My guess is that there is one or two posters posting multiple times. This type of gift is really personal. As you are questioning whether you should do it, you don’t know them well enough to know if they would like it. Out of the 10 marriage age adults that I know pretty well in our family, only 1 is the ooh I will cherish a cuddly blanket type. This one though is also really picky about color tones and would likely not like bold colors from her wedding. She’s a bit of a hoarder so it would never be thrown out but add to clutter. There is a lot that can wrong with this gift and this is assuming that you are a master knitter with a modern design aesthetic using the highest quality yarn. Most of the home made knitted blankets I’ve seen look like they belong in a mid to lower income mid western home filled with ceramic chickens or kittens. 1. May not like a blanket. 2. May not like the homemade look. 3. May not like pattern. 4. May not like using the wedding colors in their home decor. [/quote]
