The Morse Code Love blanket sends a message of affection to whoever uses it. Just as the name suggests, the blanket is weaved in such a way that the word 'love' is spelled right across each blanket in Morse code. Yet, it is far from cliched. Instead, each blanket is incredibly stylish. The vibrant neon colors used would appeal to hipsters while the [punchy plaid pattern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tartan-shuttle-weave-rug) would reel in stylish homeowners.

Created by Holly Berry, the Morse Code Love blanket are [handwoven in a 250 year-old mill](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woolen-blanket) in Scotland. Inspired by traditional production methods nearly abolished by the [Industrial Revolution of the 18th](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/todd-bracher) and 19th century, these blankets are meant to be passed down from generation to generation. They even carry a message of love along the way.
