Check out our Knit-a-long Extravaganza video for tips working this mitered block. The center stitch of this block is slipped every right side row, creating a definitive line that flanks the garter stitch that sits on either side. Increases are worked on each side of this center stitch every RS row, by working a backward-loop cast on stitch.
