This unisex blanket uses a simple mix of increases and decreases to create a wavy design that’s easy and fun to knit. The border is worked as part of the main pattern, so there’s no sewing involved.

I used Hayfield Bonus DK, which is an easy care acrylic yarn, and used colours that remind me of the seaside, but you can substitute any colours and yarns of your choice – just be sure to check the tension and yardage carefully. You will need approx. 125g (350m) of Light Grey and 75g (210m) each of Denim and Oatmeal.
