Ternary Blanket

The Ternary Blanket pattern is a two-color brioche pattern that uses modular equilateral triangles to construct a hexagonal blanket. Each equilateral triangle is worked in-the-round from the outside edge in. New triangles are joined by picking up stitches from previously worked triangles. Or the triangles can be made individually and seamed together before working the border.
