PATTERN NOTES:

This project uses approximately 4 skeins of Bernat Blanket Yarn, the larger skeins (300g). Start the blanket and end the blanket with the same yarn color.

I purchased 2 skeins of yarn (the starting rows) in the same color.

This blanket is customizable, for a smaller blanket create a shorter foundation chain and fewer rows.

For a larger blanket, create more stitches in the foundation chain, and more rows.
