Using the easy to memorize C2C technique and this recipe, you can create this bias stripe blanket in baby, throw, or twin size! The border includes 2 rows of SC and is finished with Crab Stitch.

The recipe is written with an implied understanding of the C2C technique. If you are unfamiliar with techniques (or would like a refresher), there are links to tutorials for C2C and crab stitch.

Finished Sizes:

Yarn:
I used a basic acrylic from my local big box craft store that I purchased on super sale. This being your project: use any sturdy yarn you want with care instructions you are comfortable with.
I happen to like blankets I can machine wash and dry.
