This really was a fun project. I definitely wanted it to work up a little faster, so I changed colors every two rows instead of every row.

Border rounds: I did two granny rounds in white then a final round of hdc in white. I liked how it looked better than starting white as a dc round.

Next time I’ll work in the ends as I go like I do regular granny square blankets. Maybe, anyway. I’ll have to remember to double check that there aren’t any errors first. I actually found an error in this toward the beginning when I was already half way done -- there is only one stripe of a teal at row 7.

Final Measurements:
67 rows of color
+2 granny rounds of border
+1 round of hdc.
