What You Will Learn?

  • Jump on the Caron Cakes bandwagon with me and play with COLOR! This blanket is a simple modification of the traditional granny square that it lends itself really well to experimenting with higher contrast colors because the rounds are weighted differently. And since it’s worked in the round, you can simply keep adding rounds until the blanket reaches the size you want - or until you run out of yarn, which is my favorite way to decide a blanket’s final dimensions, ha ha!.
