      Hi Toni, I finally made this blanket for my new grandson! I used the Mandala Harmony in various shades of blue with the white accent. I have yet to block it. The border is a bit loose, causing a ripple. I’m wondering if I should have gone down 1 size hook to make the border. Will the blocking process help with this, or should I take out the border and use a smaller hook? My pictures don’t do the blanket justice. It looks so nice! Thank you for the pattern.

    I love the look of this, with the white blocks and the ombré effect with the yarn. So pretty. I always love your designs and you’re so generous with free patterns. I had a suggestion for a yarn snobs, ordering from jimmy beans/wool warehouse and getting staples like madtosh, malabrigo, manos, like kind of bigger indie dyers (I can’t think of a better term for those brands). For the people who might not be familiar with these fan favorites of the LYS.
