NOTES ON CONSTRUCTION OF SAMPLE BLANKET.

For my SAMPLE I joined 20 blocks (4 x 5) with a tight join using SC. I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease in Blush to join my squares that were made using Caron Blossom Cakes in Tropical Blooms. A size J hook was used for both the squares and the joining.

I then went around the blanket with 4 rounds of Moss/Linen Stitch, making SC, chain 2, SC in each Corner for every round.

I finished it off with my ~~ Rick Rack Border ~~ Working on the foundation of Moss/Linen Stitch. Its SS, DC, SS worked in chain 1 space. Skip next stitch. SS in next chain 1 space. SS in next stitch. SS, DC, SS in next chain 1 space. Continue all around, making 2 SS, DC, 2 SS in EACH CORNER. SS = Slip Stitch.

STITCHES USED:
CH, SC. SS = Slip Stitch.
“Mini Bean” STITCH: Described in pattern.
