I took a blanket outside, rolled myself _________ it and slept there.
Answer: B
The blank takes up in: 'rolled myself up in it'.
To roll oneself up in a blanket is to wrap it around the body by rolling, and 'in' expresses being enclosed by the blanket.
'Down with' and 'down about' are not idiomatic with 'roll', and 'up with' would mean rolling together with the blanket as a companion rather than inside it.
Compare 'rolled up in a carpet' or 'wrapped up in a shawl': 'up' marks the completed wrapping, 'in' the position inside.
