This rainbow blanket is one of my favourites. It is very simple using the same stitch over and over on each row. You could actually use any stitch so if you prefer a treble or a double crochet, go for it! You could experiment too with the arrangement of the colours. I have made similar blankets alternating only three colours and varying the width of my rows.
