If the blanket is for me or one of the few knitter-kind in my life: Cascade 220.
If the blanket is not for me or a knitter: Cascade 220 superwash (if I really like them) or Plymouth Encore Worsted.
Other things that could make a blanket, if you really wanted them to: Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Worsted.
Lots of people use Knitpicks, but I think their yarn is crap and has some major labor issues behind it. (As in, hello, sweatshop-style yarns produced for pennies on the dollar in developing countries where labor laws don't mean shit!)
