GAUGE:

12 sc + 14 rows = 4 in. (10 cm). 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.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

Blanket Stitch: Working from left to right, bring large-eyed blunt needle from back to front approximately 1/2 in. (1.5 cm) from edge of work. Bring needle around and insert from front to back, catching yarn to form a “corner.”

NOTES:

Yarn amount is sufficient for 3 blocks.
