The finished blanket measures approx.
All you need to think about is the quantity it takes roughly 15 x 100g balls to make a single bed size blanket and twice as many to make a full king size bed blanket.
4ft x 6ft 120cm x 180cm which is roughly the size of a single bed.
The edging is worked in 4 rounds and the colour choices make a big difference to the way the whole blanket looks when it s finished.

This edging was designed specifically for the cosy stripe blanket but i think it would look great around pretty much any type of blanket.
So the cottage blanket is made in exactly the same way as my coast blanket with the same number of starting chains 213 the same number of stripes 84 and the same edging.
I was beginning to assemble all my crochet photos from 2014 when i suddenly realised that i hadn t shared a proper ta dah moment for my cosy stripe blanket dear oh dear how very slack of me.
Please watch part 2 before starting your blanket.
