      Have you written this up as a pattern? If so, I'd like to buy it!

        I have not written the pattern up. I got it from a book; the book is called 'more knitting in the sun-32 patterns to knit for kids. It is just a simple garter stitch stripe. So just keep knitting rows & change Colour to make stripes as you want them

      Hi! I love the colors you chose for a fun but maturing boy look. After a year, how is the blanket holding up to boy abuse?

        Sorry not to have responded sooner. Thank you for the compliaments. Blanket is holding up really well to the abuse of kids. I am on my 4th. After a year of washing, and use by an 8/9 year old, it is fantastic.

        @Jenn M: Thanks for the update! That was my last lingering worry. This project is next in my queue and my 4 year old is really excited for it!

        @Christina S: LOL .. be careful, at this stage, everyone in my family seems to want one; if I allowed it, it might be the only thing I end out knitting for the next 10 years.
