NICU blankets - they have asked specially for boy colors since people donate a lot of girly things - although any color is welcome. And they do not need to be pastel - many people love bold and brilliant colors. These can be small 24 inches by 24 inches and are used for warmth as well as for snugglies. Bigger is OK too. They must be soft and machine washable. They will be laundered at a moderately high temperature so as to follow infection control guidelines.
Several people have made gorgeous blankets from flannel with a crocheted edge around it. Those are lovely.
Our parents love that a UCMC employee or friend has made something for their baby. All of our blankets are tagged with the FFS tag.
Join Ravelry - they have lots of great free patterns.
