Gingham piknikteppe

Set it up for a park picnic with three friends and the stakes kept it from bunching up even in a light breeze. The machine-washable part is a lifesaver after we spilled salsa on it.

The nylon ripstop fabric held up perfectly on a rocky patch of ground, and the four stakes meant we never chased it across the field. It fit our group of four with room to spare, and the cold wash got the grass stains out without any trouble.

Washed this blanket after a muddy picnic and it came out like new, no fading or fraying. The ripstop fabric feels sturdy yet it folds down small enough to toss in a daypack.
