Blanket

The Blanket pattern is one of the more common patterns. The characteristics of this is a white area over the hips and croup, the colour often roans out with age, coving the whole body and even the neck. 

Most Blanket patterns have dark spots in the white areas, but some do not. Sometimes these spots have a different texture than the hair around them. 

On some horses these spots may change shape or location as the horse ages.
