    I made this pattern for our charity at work (we have a group at the bank). The only thing is that it says 1 ball each, but it really requires 1 of red and royal blue and the rest should be 2 balls if you are a tight crocheter. Loose crocheters should get 2 of every skein.

    I used this pattern from Yarnspirations. The blanket is very pretty -- my daughter loves it. But you would need to add many rows to make it look more rectangular. The photo does not look like the pattern given on the website, with regard to size.
