GAUGE:

12 stitches = 4 in. (10 cm) in Garter stitch (knit every row).

BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

BLANKET
Blanket is knit diagonally. Beginning at one corner, stitches are increased, then decreased to make opposite corner. Wrapping the yarn over the needle creates a decorative edge on the Blanket.

Next Row: Knit 2, yarn over needle, knit next 2 stitches together twice, knit to end of row.
Repeat last row until 5 stitches remain.
Last Row: Knit 1, knit next 2 stitches together twice – 3 sts.
