The Geo Rainbow blanket is an excellent introduction to colour work in a corner to corner (c2c) “graphgan” project. The main body of this colourful toddler sized blanket is worked in one piece using colour work that creates a fantastic illusion. here is enough going on to make it fun but has no overly complicated colour changes (however, do be prepared to juggle a few balls!). A simple crab stitch border creates a tidy finish and doesn’t take away from the main attraction.
