Basic C2C (Corner to Corner) Stitch Tutorial
Continue repeating steps 1 – 6 until you have reached the desired size and you want to stop increasing each row.
Note that each row will increase by 1 block – row 1 = 1 block, row 2 = 2 blocks, row 3 = 3 blocks, etc until you stop increasing each row.
My sample is a square of 5 rows so I will stop increasing and start decreasing after row 5.
Continue repeating steps 4 – 6 to end of each row, do not increase at the end of the row.
Each decrease row will decrease by a count of 1 block. Row 6 = 4 blocks, Row 7 = 3 blocks, etc. until you finish with 1 block for row 9.
