It is highly recommended that you watch Marly Bird’s tutorial video on planned color pooling. Link is on pattern page.
You may have to tighten or loosen some stitches as you go in order to keep the color pooling intact. Keep a variety of hook sizes on hand to help resize your stitches.
The last sc of Row 3 and the first sc of Row 4 may have to be replaced with hdc sts in order to keep the pooling intact. You may or may not have to do this; keep an eye on the color alignment to decide.
This yarn has been specially designed to get 3 sc in each color in the sequence when worked in Moss st.
Each color length, or 3 repeats, should measure about 1½“ (4 cm) across in Moss st. However, it is more important that you follow the per color gauge than the per-inch gauge: 3 full sc sts per each length of one color in Moss st.
Your blanket may turn out to be a different width depending on the number of colors in your colorway. Find how many colors are in the sequence YOU are using, and maintain 3 sc per color for perfect results.
When instructed to work into the “camel st”, work into the strand just below the back loop, or the 3rd loop, of the st.
