A colour in blanket combines a textile with a printed design that you fill with colour. The outlines provide a starting point, while the choice of colours and the order of working are up to you.
Start by spreading the blanket on a flat, protected surface. Keep the recommended pens nearby and try a small, discreet area first. You do not have to finish the whole design in one sitting. Working on a small section at a time makes it easier to put the project away and return to it later.
The type of ink matters when choosing how to colour the fabric. Permanent textile pens and washable pens are intended for different results. Follow the manufacturer’s guidance and the care label for washing, rather than assuming every pen will wash out of every fabric.
The project can also be shared, with each person choosing a section. Check the product’s age guidance when choosing an activity for children and arrange adult supervision where needed. Replace pen caps after use and store the accessories together.
Before ordering, compare the design, dimensions, included accessories and care instructions on the individual product page. A colour in blanket can suit a quiet activity at home or a creative gift, but the details of the specific model should guide your choice. Look at those details rather than relying on a generic description of colouring textiles.
