Notes

Heavily inspired by the Fly Away Blanket by Tin Can Knits, but I didn’t follow the color suggestion or the yarn recommendation. Instead, I followed the layout presented by undone57 in the project Prism: https://www.ravelry.com/projects/undone57/fly-away

Knit corner to corner, starting with 2 stitches. Increase via a M1L on each row after the first selvedge stitch. All knit stitches. Decrease via a ssk on the first two stitches of each row.

If I increase to 44 stitches on the diagonal, squares weight 18 g. 60 stitches on the diagonal gets weight to 37g.
