This is a very soft cool blanket great for summer.

Yarn is from Hobby Lobby

Yarn Bee Bamboo- tiful.

I used 5 different colors . I skein of each color = 257 yards each. Lightweight #3 yarn weight.

I used an 5.0mm/H-8 hook.
Note the rounds will be fewer as you go with each skein color as the square gets larger around.

So first color - teal - 15 rounds

One round of beige dc clusters

Second color - yellow ochre - 7 rounds

One round of beige dc clusters

Third color - sage green - 5 rounds

One round of beige dc clusters

Fourth color - coral -4 rounds

Next 2 dc and Chain 2, next 3 dc and chain 2 repeat from * to * 2 more times then Sl into the top of your first dc to complete the first round. You now have four sets of the 3 dc with 2 chains between each.
