crochet mixed stripe blanket complete

I was inspired by SophieSlim's  blanket  so I started my own using this pattern early this year.

It started growing quickly. It was nice learning new stitches and it required lots of counting! Getting to 100 rows was very exciting.

I wanted to use as much yarn as possible for the edges of the blanket. A mix of single and double crochet all the way around.

Its now finally finished. The finished size is  35'' (89cm) x 54'' (137cm)
