Notes

I loved jadeblade's version so much I copied all the colors.

Cascade colors: 2 Black, 1 each of Anis Blue (8908), Citron Green (8910), Pear Yellow (8412), White (8505), California Poppy Orange (7826), Granny Smith (8914), Lilac Mist (8912), Tibetan Rose (9422), Magenta (7803), Cerise (7802), Caribbean Blue (8907)

I love, love, love this blanket. It’s fun to pick and choose which colors to use next.

Now that it’s done, I would have liked to change a few colors - I would have liked a deeper yellow (like a goldenrod), a darker orange, and a navy blue.

The finished blanket is not very wide. If you’re looking for a large blanket, I’d add at least 2 more repeats to the pattern. This one is about as wide as a beach towel.
