April Preemie Blanket - CAL Day 15

Morning all! Well, would you look at that, we're now half way through the month, which means we're halfway through our blanket! How exciting is that!!

How are you finding it so far?  Enjoying the variety of stitches?

I'm really loving that each day's row/s are fast, and I don't need to allot a lot of time to it. Handy when you have a large household!

You will need:

4.5mm hook

DK/8ply/light worsted weight yarn in minimum of 6 colours.

Yarn Note: I did not start with complete balls. All 6 of my balls were originally 100g balls with a little of each used. They are a mix of Stylecraft Special DK, King Cole Pricewise and Moda Vera Marvel 8ply for my 6 colours. You could choose 6 colours and follow my colour changes, or you could make every line a different colour (excellent way to use scraps) or you could even use some self striping yarn, or a solid colour.

Colour Changes: I change my colours by completing the last yarn over and pull through of the last stitch in the row with the new colour for the next row, so I don't have to join with slip stitches. Of course, this means you'll have to redo that one last stitch each day as you won't know what colour is next, but the finished piece will be much neater this way.

My Colours are

A - Beige

B - Blue

C - Dark Blue

D - Tan

E - Mint/Turquoise

F - Dark Grey
