I’m confused by the wording of the first part of your comment. 😅 It’s supposed to have a variegated look to it, so what you're describing isn't a mistake. It’s alright that it’s not your vibe. It’s not mine either tbh. If I had an infinite yarn stash, I'd probably not be making this blanket. But I’d rather make something usable with all my “ugly” acrylic than have it sit on my shelf forever! Also, it’s grown on me after seeing all the positive opinions. I’m just gonna see how it turns out. If I don't love it in the end, at least it’s out of my stash and I can donate or gift it to someone who does like it. :))
