Another test for Frank. Trying for a smaller, lighter blanket, since this is going to go on over the Summer, in Georgia. Also, Loops and Threads Woolike is $2.99 for 678 yards, which means I can do this blanket without breaking budget. Using my own colors, with my own color changes.

Colors:
W = White
I = Ivory
B = Beige
CG = Cool Grey
C = Charcoal
BL = Black
R = Red

48-49 R. There was still some cupping, but that was fixed with a good blocking. If you're a tight crocheter, consider moving up one or 2 hook sizes, or ch7 instead of 6.
I’m an idiot. I did these rows incorrectly. rip rip rip
