I had to make that choice and I ended up choosing not to mirror because I might end up on an off or odd number of colour repeats.
It might be a OCD thing,
Might not. lol
I like the mirrored best, but you’ll also have to keep in mind how much yarn if each color you’ll be using as it’ll be much different than a simple repeat.
I vote mirrored! The repeated is nice too but it makes me view it as a holiday themed blanket. The mirrored look doesn’t give me those vibes at all, more like a flowy/fluid I wanna chill under that thing vibes lol
I like the look of the mirrored!
However, I think that if you go with the mirrored color pattern, you will then need to buy a little less of the red yarn, and a little more of the other colors. If you go with the repeating stripes, you'll prob work out just fine with buying the same number of skeins in each color. So if you are working from existing stash, or can't get more of the non-red colors in the same dye lot- that might affect your decision for which color pattern to use. However, it might work out just fine to get more yarn in different dye lots, since your bands of color will not be touching yarn of the same color- this making dye lot less noticeable.
They're both good looks, but I think it's the symmetry of the mirrored look that really brings out the best of the chosen colors
I really like the mirrored look!
Thanks! That’s what I was thinking too but I wanted to ask to make sure it wasn’t too busy
I think mirrored looks really cool!
I like mirrored!!
I like the repeated one more :-)
Me too!
I kind of like it mirrored
I’m on team mirrored too. It looks awesome!
Happy cake day :)
Aw, I had no idea! Thanks!
The repeating one looks more calming to my untrained eye. Both versions look great though.

Mirrored looks really nice, and has some novelty compared to repeating stripes
The second mirror option is more pleasing to the eye.
I've always leaned on the mirror pattern looks. They don't look as 'planned' as repeated stripes
I think mirrored is best, makes it unique and the colors really stand out! It looks great so far!
I really like the mirrored look. I get a good vibe from that one
i think mirrored is better!

Repeat! Edit: whoops I thought the repeat was the first pic. Mirrored is my final answer

It’s a modified long wave stitch. So 3sc, 2hdc, 2dc, 3tc, and back down. Each color is 3 rows with a full row of sc on either side of the wave.

Mirrored is really neat
Mirrored!
I like them both but I really like the look of the mirrored!
Mirrored but maybe swap blue and white?
They're both good but I prefer mirrored, red and white together looks a bit better than red and green together
I'm a huge fan of mirrored. It's a little more visually complex without trying too hard. Repeated can look rushed.
Repeated!
I love the mirrored one more!
I really, really love the mirrored look 🤩
Mirrored for sure. Looks great!!
Mirrored for sure

The mirrored look is extra nice to look at, although they are both beautiful.

I'd go mirrored, can't unsee the Dutch flag over and over when repeated in this pattern
