Our Rainbow Triangle Throw is a fun and organic take on the classic granny square blanket. Made up from 16 triangles, the throw comes together quickly making it the perfect pick-up-put-down project or something to take travelling with you. Here we’ve used a rainbow colour palette but feel free to swap them out, for others in our Cotton 8ply range, to suit your home.
