The easiest, funkiest baby blanket, ever. Or that I've personally seen. ;) I'm not a big fan of pastels, and when my good friend, Kris got pregnant, I really wanted to make a great baby blanket but couldn't find anything that was fun, easy, quick, and colorful. All important, since my yarn arrived two weeks before her due date.
The toddler size makes a great lap blanket, and this could easily be adjusted by casting on more, or using more skeins for length to make it an adult sized blanket.
Some color ideas: Azure & Periwinkle, Pink & Buttermilk, LightBlue & Buttermilk, Blue & Light Blue, Lime & Azure, Burnt Sienna & Azure, Burnt Sienna & Lime, Orange & Yellow, Red & Yellow.

Material List 1 pair US #10 straight or circular needles *do not join* Gauge *I'm not certain what the final length was on the infant size. |
 Modeled by Aayla, shown in orange & yellow. |
Pattern
With both colors of yarn (2 strands, one of each color), cast on 100 [120] stitches with Long Tail Cast on method or another stretchy cast on.

Work in garter stitch until you are almost out of yarn, then bind off loosely.
Weave in all loose ends, at least 3" since this is machine washable yarn, and you want it to hold up.
