I like the color of this lullaby blanket - baby blue. I thought a boucle yarn is used to do this blanket but it does not say in the pattern. I also like the edging used in the blanket.

On round 3 of the border, do you sc ch3 twice all in the same chain 3 space or is it two separate chain 3 spaces?
