The 15th stitch in the first row becomes the bottom right corner. As you work the decreases in the center of every other row, the first row actually forms the bottom and right side of the block. Then the remaining rows--I believe there are 27 rows in the block total--will continue to form the other corner of the block. Your decreases will line up diagonally from the top left corner of the block to the bottom right. Hope that helps.

You should see the diagrams now. We apologize for the omission.

The pattern mentions 'matching dotted lines in Diagram' but no diagram has been provided. I suppose you might be able to guess what is required once the blanket is knitted and stitched up, but it's a lot of work to do if its difficult to complete it as shown in the picture.

Where is the diagram so that we know where to embroider, etc?

I started this blanket (did 11 squares), then realized it would go much faster and be much easier if I knitted it as one piece, and then chain stitched the plaid lines afterwards. This eliminates all the loose ends that would take days to weave in, not to mention sewing all the squares together. Think about it!! I do like the look of the pattern. Doing it my way changes the back A LITTLE, in that the vertical sq. edges become a laddered pattern instead of solid.....a small price to pay for the saving of time and effort!
