Summer Blanket

As a fresh weaver, I jump at every opportunity to make some cloth to learn. So this is a cotton summer blanket for a toddler, to use in a stroller.
The warp is made of a colourful blueish yarn (pic2), the weft stripes are blue, same as warp, mint and burgundy, and I didn't use the second colorful yarn in the end.
It looks a bit like a kitchen towel to me but at the same time really baby-ish so I hope they'll like it.
I really like the colour changing yarns, it makes it easier for me to focus on proper work, not having to count and panic because of a fckd up pattern.
Also I'm thinking about making actual kitchen towels now.

Yesterday I've realised I'm using the same system for rainbow hair for years - except I started doing it in a mirrored way at some point.

When I bleach the hair, I make a rainbow. When the colour fades and the hair grows, I use less colours for touch ups - usually ditching yellow first and ending up with pinkish - violetish - blueish combo before I bleach it again. The rainbow effect is strong though
