I made this blanket as a gift and the color was chosen by the recipient. The color name is Fairy, kind of a lavender purple color.This pattern is composed of the Irish Mesh Stitch and basic Stockinette. This gives the blanket a nice striped appearance.
The pattern comes in 3 sizes: Lapghan, Afghan, and Bedspread aka Couples.
Lapghan: 38.5” x 46.5” - 9-10 balls of Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick&Quick - 106yds
Afghan: 50.5” x 57” - 10-11 balls Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick&Quick - 106yds

You will also need a pair of scissors and a tapestry needle.
