I got pattern on Ravelry

http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wavy-blanket-3

I used Caron Simply soft
White
Soft blue
Pistacho


cast on 98

started with 3 rows   white

pistachio   2 rows

blue   2 rows

White 4 rows

pistachio 2

blue 2       and so on --so the white would break it up and not be so busy!!!

Next Time i would take out 2 repeats ..for the cast on ..and i would go down 1 size hook

finished 30 x 46

I made matching Hats --knitted snowman --baby Booties
