CO 41sts
This is going to be baby sized. I’m planning on about 120 squares (10x12) with each square measuring about 3”. After that I’ll add a border in a solid color. I’m starting with purple then working my way back through the rainbow (purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red).
I’m using scraps for this blanket accumulated from swaps, etsy, knitting friends, and various projects of my own. I’ll list yarns I know the names of here.
To work border I picket up sts all around edge on a 40” cable placing markers at every corner.
