Rund und Bunt! (round and colourful; Blanket, Baby Blanket and Dishcloth)

A colourful round blanket. 3 variations are described in this pattern.
The 1. variation is a blanket for your sofa. Here are many leftovers used. The result will be a surprise.
The 2. variation is a baby blanket made of sock yarn / fingering yarn.
The 3. variation can be used as dishcloth or washcloth.
I am sure you will have ideas for additional variations. It is not always necessary to weave the ends.
