Crochet double sided blanket instructional video. Uses a similar stitch to Thermal Stitch, but changes colours on every row, leaving a fringe.

The basic idea is to use a large hook and to crochet with three balls at once; this depends on the balls not all running out at the same time (since this is scrap yarn) so the colour-change is gradual.
