Just did the math. 130 stitches/row x 42 rows/color x 7 colors = 38,220 stitches. No wonder it took so long. Although looking at it I think I shorted the last teal color a row or two. So maybe a few less stitches.
All spread out it's really wonky but I'm just pleased it got done before Oscar did. He'll be a summer baby without much need for a wool blanket but whatever. It was fun. And I got a lot of knitting out of my system.
Yay! You finished it. Looks great!

Looks fabulous! Lucky "Oscar" will love it! but why oh why did you calculate out all those stitches? I'm thinkin you won't be knitting another blanket for a long time.
