Worked with two solid colors and two print colors, each block in this crib blanket is worked modularly then sewn together. Interest and depth are added to the finished blanket by letting the stripes of color fall where they will without manipulation. If you have a penchant for symmetry and would like the printed colors to match when seamed, you will need extra balls of the printed colors. The pattern reads best when the colors used share no common shades.
