Starburst Blanket
"The Starburst blanket is a great stash busting project. Get all your scrap yarn together and get started on this blanket. It takes a classic granny square pattern and elevates it with color changes and spike stitches. This pattern has pictures for every row so you are sure to get the pattern right. This pattern is also easy to adapt to different yarn weights, and because you are using granny squares you can choose how big or small you want to make it. "
