Granny Stripe Blanket
Hey crocheters, here’s a color choosing hack for you, but first let’s take a look at the blanket below. Can you see that there’s one neutral coor used every second row? When you do that, all the other colors (no matter how crazy!) will look well balanced. That’s because they are not side by side, and the neutral hue ties them all together. Clever!

Caroly’n Even Granny Blanket
Instead of alternating placement of blocks, Carla Stormont has used the classic granny stitch in an even way. Thanks to that simple twist, or rather straightening, the granny stripes blanket has been born. It’s an easy and repetitive pattern to follow. The blanket itself is gentle texture, not too much, just enough to still ensure the lightweight structure.
