This might be my favorite blanket yet. It’s mesmerizing to watch it come together as you work with the light grey main color and a rainbow of colors for contrast. This is a cheery blanket that makes a
great accent in any room.

Pixel is a large blanket that takes a lot of wool to put together, but the result is a dense and very cozy blanket big enough for a queen-sized bed. This blanket also makes a great picnic or beach blanket. Of course, you could always make a smaller version by reducing the number of chained sts worked at the start. If you have a large amount of odds and ends of worsted weight wool, this is also an amazing stashbuster. My trunk o’ yarn has all kinds of room for new goodies now.
