Gingham Squares Baby Blanket
"Have you ever wanted to make a gingham baby blanket but didn’t want all the color changes? The Gingham Squares baby blanket is made by working each square separately, while holding 2 strands of yarn together. By changing the colors of the 2 strands you're holding together you get the fade effect of having lighter washed out colors of the same kind. No color changing used. When you’re done you sew all the squares together. "
