Passap Baby Blanket

I used Bendigo Woollen Mills, Luxury 4ply Baby Wool to make a double sided baby blanket. One side shows white vertical stripes and the other horizontal alternating stripes.

1 each 3 colours, but didn't use all of the 200g balls.

1:1 division, 141 sts, (EON ie L69, R70) NOTE: BB has extra needle on RIGHT.

Caston Col 1, T3, N/N, 1R; T5, CX/CX, 2R; T5, 1R N/N

2R white RC000
Begin pattern:
2 rows N/AX col 2
2 rows N/N col 1
2 rows N/AX col 3
2 rows N/N col 1

I did about 62 repeats, 496R, but I did another Col 1 and ended with Col 2

Cast off loosely
( I did K1, ** P1, P2tog Tbl, k1 K2tog tbl ** repeat to end.)

What size does this turn out? I am looking at running through a lot of yarn.

Oh goodness, it's been so long since I knitted this one for my daughter's friend. I do remember knitting it at least twice because it didn't turn out right size. My best thought is do the size I did and see if it's what you want. As you have a lot of yarn, you can make the next one to suit your yarn and preference.
