GAUGE:
18 sts + 34 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in Garter st (k 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.
Exact gauges is not imporant to this project.
NOTES:
1. Blanket is made up of 30 individual Squares.
All Squares are knit following instructions for Garter Square, with specific color(s) noted for each Square.
2. A yarn over (yo) creates a new loop on your needle and is worked by wrapping the yarn around your right hand needle.
Do not use an existing stitch to make a yarn over.
The finished yarn over will leave an open space (like an eyelet) in your knitting - this is part of this design.
