“The inspiration behind this blanket is a candy shop here in Chicago called Dylan’s Candy Bar. It’s an explosion of color and when I walked into it for the first time, I felt giddy and excited and I wanted to take it all in. So, the colors I chose for this blanket are ones that feel like summer and childhood and candy! These hexagons are all made separately and then joined together with some half hexagons using a continuous join.”

Pattern includes written instructions and continuous join video tutorial.
