When working a C2C blanket, you will follow a Row 2

For the first half of the graph, you will add blocks to
each row until you reach the longest diagonal in the
graph. After working the longest row, you will begin
decreasing. Decreases are made by slip stitching
along the last square made.

Continue working in the pattern, following the
Pattern Graph and using the technique you just
learned, until you have completed row 7.

Changing Color
Change color when starting a new block by slip
stitching with the new color (see Photos 13a and 13b).
Decreasing
When you crochet the last block in the longest
diagonal of your chart (Row 7 in the example), you
will reach the halfway point of your blanket. Each row
after this point will contain one fewer blocks than the
row before.
