The Sedona Starburst Hexie Blanket is a fresh take on the Finley Starburst Hexie Blanket—this one contains the same starburst we know and love, with the same join BUT we’ve changed up the layout. This gives an opportunity to make some fun zig zag stripes which works up into an awesome fade. You guys are going to have so much fun playing with the colours on this one. Can’t wait to see all the faded and fun hexie stripes you all come up with :)

While I love the “classic” Navy and White stripe “Nautical” look—I also think this blanket would be adorable with a variety of different colours. Keep the cream coloured base and add a coral colour for a fun and fresh vibe, or change out the navy with a subtle green or taupe for a more neutral and soft look—or simply replace Navy with a soft pink or purple for a stunning baby girl blanket. The options are truly endless and the Shine Worsted yarn used for this blanket has a wide variety of shades suitable to your every need. Colours I’ve got my eye on include: Clarity, Pistachio, Grapefruit, Blush, Hydrangea, Wisteria and Platinum!

For the last few years I’ve signed up for a year’s worth of yarn. It’s called a “monthly yarn subscription” consisting of 12 months of surprise skeins in the mail. Each month I crocheted the skeins into a Granny Stripe Blanket (1st year) and for the past year I’ve been making a granny square blanket from the “Year of Surprises Blanket Pattern” — this year I’m doing it again!!

You see, I thought I would try and make myself a temperature blanket. I started, stopped, amended, started again…and again…and again….

Eventually, after trying and failing to decide which kind of pattern I wanted for my temperature blanket, I decided it was way too big of a commitment for me (with the amount of other things I usually have on the go). But, I still liked the idea of a “yearly” blanket…. cue: the yarn subscriptions.

I discovered the idea of the yarn subscription sort of by chance—but loved the idea way more than a temperature blanket. Surprise, hand dyed merino wool in the mail…every month!?!?! -Sign me up!!

Pick your favourite 10 colours and let the fun begin. This pattern is easily adapted to make a fade, ombre, rainbow or whatever combination makes your heart sing. It’s put together in such a way that the first and last row match up creating the perfect balance. I hope you all have as much fun as I did playing with colour!
