I wanted my blanket to feel like a song, with the colors changing the same way that music can change your mood.

I used my yarn leftovers for this project, so I’m sorry but I’m not entirely sure how many yards you’ll need.
I used a 5.5mm hook for slightly thicker yarns or if I was carrying another yarn in the stitch, and sized up to a 6.0mm hook if the yarn was thinner.
Across the body of the blanket, I alternated SC FLO, SC BLO, which gives it a nice texture, and in the piano keys did SC both loops so the definition of the keys is easier to see.
I crochet pretty tightly, so a more relaxed stitch would easily make your project bigger, so feel free to size up or down on your hook based on your stitching.

This whole project was an experiment in color and technique, so please share with me your results, I would love to see what you create!
