By knitting a square this way, you get a lovely border. Just right for sewing together with other squares to make a gorgeous blanket. It's all about increasing and then decreasing and is pretty simple.
This particular square is made using 4.5 needles and Hot Pink Acrylic.
Step 1: Cast on 3 stitches
Step 2: Knit One row
Step 3: Increase by One Stitch on the Second Stitch
Step 4: Continue rows until you have 26 Stitches
Step 5: Knit one row of 26 Stitches without increasing.
Step 6. Decrease on the next and following rows by knitting together the Second and Third Stitches
Step 7: Continue like this until you have 3 stitches.
Step 8: Cast off.
