What could be less exciting than a cream and taupe blanket?

I considered adding an accent color or two, maybe deep purple and hot pink, be weaving crocheted chains lengthwise thru the inc and/or dec holes, - Have any of you ever tried that? - but then I thought… nah… It’s a Classic!

Caron One Pound ‘Taupe’ from Karen of MA and several small skeins of Magic Match III BULKY from ? ? ?

Note to Self: A skein of Caron One Pound yields 44 rows when used with a size I hook, while a skein of the Magic Match makes 9 rows. I have 4 more skeins = 36 rows still available.
