The 3 purl sts on either side of the Grapevine Panel are purled on every row (right and wrong side) producing a
garter stitch with purl sts rather than knit stitches.

Work in pattern stitches as established. Twenty repeats of the Moss Stitch Heart pattern will yield the desired
66” length.
After the blanket is complete, make a border: crochet one complete round of the blanket in Double Crochet,
and 2 complete rounds in the Treble crochet, making sure at each corner to do 3 stitches in the corner to form
an angle.
Finish by pressing on the wrong side of the work, using a wet cloth, not touching the work with the iron.
