What's it called?
I want to make Gabriel a sensory blanket for his 6th birthday (with his special needs, feeling things is pretty much his FAVORITE thing to do). So I want to make a little square "lovey" blanket that is quartered with 4 different fabrics on it and gross grain loops on the edges. On one of the quarters I want to use a waffle weave fabric (his fave!), on one, satin, on one, wool, and on one....._________________. I don't know what it's called!
Since we are rural I can't just go into a Joann's and ask for it...I need to buy it online and I don't know what it's called to do a search. It's that soft fleece material that has little raised-up circle bumps on it. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

I'd love an adult sized blanket with it too! Have you guys seen the camera straps on Etsy that have the Minky on the neck side of the strap? I really want one!
