(see chart on last page for help making a blanket of a different size with a different weight of yarn) Hook: 5.5 mm – 8 mm (make a swatch to determine the best hook for your yarn). Yarn: 170 yards of each of 7 colors bulky weight (#5) yarn. This pattern does work up quickly in any size, but blankets with a foundation chain of more than 122 may take longer than 6 days. See my blog post “ Changing Colors on the 6-Day Kid Blanket – How to Achieve the Snowflake” for an explanation about how to create different looks. It is possible to create a very different look by changing colors on other rows. This pattern creates “vivid chevrons” or defined stripes. You can make the 6-Day Kid Blanket in any size you like, using any yarn you want. Many crocheters wanted to make their blankets larger and use different weight yarns, so this pattern has some extra features added to help you make adjustments for size and weight. The 6-Day Kid Blanket (6DKB), originally written for a toddler size blanket made with chunky weight yarn, can easily be made in 6 days. If you do decide to make a larger blanket than the toddler version original, it will probably take you longer than 6 days. There is a chart below and a YouTube video to help you resize the pattern. Many creative people have made their own adaptations to the blanket that can give it a completely different look. The pattern with the photo of my best friend Mudkip laying on the blanket is the original pattern.
