Gumball Blanket V2
The Gumball blanket is a fun pattern with a circle to square motif. This updated version now includes a detailed continuous join as you go instruction! After the blanket body is created, a simple border completes the piece. Any border can be substituted, but I believe the bright colored spots call for simplicity. Working from stash? Try holding two strands of yarn together for a thicker blanket!

Tips and Notes
• Weave your ends after each time you cut the yarn to avoid having to do them all at the end.
• Please read the stitch guide for any abbreviations.
• To get a neater result, I do not “chain up” for the first sc of the round/row. Jump straight into the first sc.
