Notes

Tested the glorious Queen pattern by Tinna and loved every stitch of this huge beast of an afghan! 180x250 cm in total.

Color sequence (color B Khaki)
I started with apricot , then Stone, then Vintage peach, back to stone and apricot again.

I did 3 rows of one color, changed to the next for one row and then back to the first. And then again 3 rows of the next color.
So
color 1 (apricot)
color 1
color 1
color 2 (stone)
color 1
color 2 (stone)
color 2
color 2
color 3 (vintage peach)
color 2
color 3
color 3
color 3
and so on.

around the time I got to the transition of the smaller diamond to the band of diamonds I switched to apricot, toy and stone cause I wanted the blanket to be a bit more light in the middle section. When arriving at the middle I mirrored everything (although, I did mess up my middle, it’s slighty off don’t tell anyone).
