Please note

Throughout the blanket every row will start and end in a box 

Change colours on the last pull through of the previous row

Every row is done in a different colour 

Leave ends of about 15cm/6inches, NO need to knot or cut shorter!

Repeat numbers are totals e.g. 65 these will be 65 Vs in that row

The turning chain at the start of each row is not counted as a stitch. 

The chains are counted in the total stitches for each row (xxx) 

Check colour table for colours, quick hints and tick boxes 

Make sure you use the correct column of colour names for your pack (Wendy or Stylecraft)

If you have to place a st on top of a CH, go around the CH
