Chris Bailey:

In the tutorial they use 2 colors and skipped a space in between. For this one I did the same thing but I used 4 colors and did not skip a stitch in between

The one I'm putting on my current blanket (the second picture) is the same thing but I am using 3 colors.

Angie Miller:
This is a simple border that gives a braided look. It is for decoration only and does not add any size to the piece. To do: sc in every stitch and slip stitch in between every stitch.

Robin Mosier-Sexton:
2rows hdc, next crossed dc, then sc, last is ch 6 , sc repeat candy cane (link above)

The Wave Border

Attach your color of choice.  Chain 3. Make one DC in every stitch.

Chain 3 (counts as dc). Turn your work.
Make one DC in each of the next 3 stitches. Chain 3 and turn your work. Sl st in the 3rd chain. Turn your work. Chain 3 (counts as dc). Make 4 more DC in the chain 3 space.
Wave Repeat *Locate your next stitch on the row below. Make a DC in that stitch and in the next 3 stitches. Chain 3 and turn your work. Sl st in the first stitch. Turn your work. Make 7 DC in the chain 3 space.*
Repeat the “wave repeat” section until you have reached the end of your blanket. To create the last wave:
Locate your next stitch on the row below. Make a DC in that stitch and in the next 3 stitches. Chain 3 and turn your work. Sl st in the first stitch. Turn your work. Make 5 DC in the chain 3 space.
Bind off and weave in your ends.
