The Slanket

A few months ago, I saw the Slanket on Daily Candy. It seemed so cool - a blanket with sleeves, so you can use your arms but still keep warm. Ideal for knitters, soduku players, etc. who are always cold (i.e. me). After my ongoing commentary about the coolness of the Slanket concept, my MIL sent me one for Hannukah and it arrived this week. It is just as fantastic as I imagined - perfect for sitting on the couch, staying toasty and knitting. I'm not sure it'll work with spinning, but my spinning is in such nascent stages, I could be totally wrong. So, for any fellow knitters who also get so cold that they need a sweater in the freezer section of the grocery store, consider this a slanket recommendation.
