There are two versions of this pattern. Both use the same stitches, but use the colors in two different ways resulting in two different looks. In the striped version, pictured in Cumulus Rainbow, you will have some solid stripes that wave up and down. In the blended version, shown in Berroco Wizard, the colors will be more intermixed and the blanket will have a slightly woven look.

For the striped version you will need 2 or 3 colors. For the blended version you will need at least 3 colors, but you can use as many colors as you like. See pattern for details.
