NOTES:
- Read instructions though before
beginning.
- Blanket in photo is knit with
one strand of Red Heart Super Saver in Banana
- I used a postage scale to
weigh the Red Heart Super Saver and started the final garter stitch rows
when there was ½ ounce left. That
worked out perfectly.

cast on in additional increments of 2 stitches. You will need more yarn of course.
