Rainbow Doll Blanket

I had so much fun making this cute little doll blanket. The colors were fun and it made a certain 5 year old VERY happy.
I made a bigger blanket with this same pattern for my friend Jess. You can check it out here
Here is an unnecessary large amount of pictures for you…(wink)

My daughter isn’t really big on dolls but she loves her stuffed animals. She has one special one in mind that was going to be able to cuddle with this blanket. It was her favorite guy, Pluto.
The morning I gave it to her, she tucked Pluto in all cozy in his cradle.

Wherever Pluto goes, the blanket goes. I’m so happy she likes it!

    Love this blanket and this pattern. But I think this is a slow growing pattern. Isn't it?
    Anyway - BEAUTIFUL!!

    This is gorgeous. I might try one for myself. I may try and make pastel colours - Blankets are so fun to make!

    Hi I was wondering if you remember how many starting chains you used? The lion brand version calls for 123 chains to start with but I want to make one the size you did. Thanks!
