The Sully blanket by Leila Raabe features simple stripes in four colors with a subtle seed-stitch detail between them. A garter stitch border is picked up to polish off the edges. Go for bold as shown, or take a tone-on-tone approach. This one’s a tried-and-true smile-maker, and the designer’s most highly requested “please write a pattern for this!” project over the years.
