This is a small/medium sized lap blanket that works up in a flash. This stitch is worked up in multiples of 8 stitches so the pattern can be adjusted in size by increasing/decreasing in multiples of 8. This pattern will begin and end with a 6-row border and will require pickup along the sides to complete it. The argyle pattern is worked over 16 rows and, once you get the hang of it, is easy enough to recognize the pattern repeat.
