**Crochet Pattern - Digital File**
This pattern is a variation of the 6-Day Kid Blanket (6DKB) and was custom-designed by request for my former landlord in New York, a very special person to me. It makes a very large adult-sized blanket. I’ve chosen the colors, stripe, size and border to appeal to a masculine or gender-neutral aesthetic, but feel free to make it for anyone, including yourself. Color has no gender, but this one is for the boys.
This pattern variation has a custom herringbone stitch border.
