Yes Kiwimade I’ve knitted a few memory blankets in the past. I knitted one in shades of green and one in shades of blue for the spare room beds both of which turned out nicely and also have made some using up scraps of wool in a variety of sizes.
The ones I am making now end up single bed size and I find just making the squares makes them easier to pick up any time without having a lot of bulk. Also as they are done on circular needles it is just a matter of knitting around and around except for the increases at each corner so a good “no think” pattern for when watching tv or reading.
I’ve also made several 10 stitch blankets but the constant short rows become annoying when I want to read at the same time
