When I saw many different types of variegated yarns from various makers, I thought it would be wonderful to knit a beautiful baby blanket in a lace pattern with lovely color changes. I wanted a design that would make this baby blanket look luxurious yet that it would be relatively easy to knit for a wider group of knitters.
I found a chart for a beautiful lacy pattern and made a couple of changes to it; then I graphed it again. While I filmed a detailed video, I wrote a pattern simultaneously (in between the takes) for a blanket and a scarf.
You can use practically any yarn weight for this project. For my scarf and baby blanket, I used yarn of medium weight (#4) and US needles #8 (5 mm). If you decide to knit a blanket, scarf or any other item from a thinner yarn, you will have to do more stitch and row repeats.
Should you need a pdf of this written pattern, it is available for purchase. I priced it, so it is very affordable to many of you. Thank you to all of you who bought my patterns in the past, and thank you to anyone who will purchase them in the future. These purchases will help me finance future videos for my YouTube Channel and writing patterns.

Note: Most of the time I work as fast as I can to keep up with knitting and crocheting requests. I have to videotape, edit videos, then convert them & upload them to my channel. After that often I post on my blog patterns. I answer many questions, which means that often I work up to 16 hours a day. I would tremendously appreciate IF anyone of you who finds an error in the written pattern, so please, let me know - where (what rows) and what may be the problem. Many future knitters & crocheters from our artsy and crafty virtual world will thank you for your good deed, including myself.
