This blanket is a variation on the classic 6-Day Kid Blanket. It utilizes the striping effect known as Australian Confetti, created by Glynis Robertson, aka Oldboiler Robo. Glynis was inspired by the crochet pattern Confetti Waves designed Kate Rowell.
The rainbow stripes are accented by contrasting granny cluster rows and a custom sunshine border finishes off this cheerful blanket.
