I made this blanket as a Christmas gift. Seven colours, lots
of counting. I did three rows and did a spike stitch from the top row to the
bottom. This is single bed sized, and I repeated the colours for the border in
Double Crochet, and used glittery yarn too.
This stitch is simple, yet very yarn-consuming, but the
effect is really good. My stitch count was multiples of five; each cluster of spikes is made up of [dc, small spike, long spike, small spike, dc]. The border was done in dc, and the corners [dc, ch 2, dc].
