GAUGE:

10.5 sc + 10 rows = 4" [10 cm].
Rectangle = 9" wide x 10" tall [23 x 25.5 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.

Border Patterned Blanket Reviewed by jennie on 2008-10-28 *****
I loved this pattern, i made it in christmas colors for my future in-laws! It's only October and as soon as they saw it immediatly put it on the back of their recliner! I will make this again, only maybe a little bigger next time? I did a single row of a different color (in sc) around each black, i love the way this turned out.
