Lap Rug

In the area of rural America that I am from, this is called a lap rug. I have no idea if that is the general term for this, but that is what I call it since that is what I know to call it. This one is made from Lions Brand Homespun and is just a very simple cable pattern with moss stitch borders. The idea of a lap rug is that it is long and skinny, made for one person to use while sitting in a recliner, and this one works very well for that purpose.
