This pattern combines two of my favorite blanket patterns chevron and granny squares. My sister is expecting her first baby in October, and I think this would be the perfect baby blanket pattern to make for him. I will have to pick up some baby yarn in a boy color, since I currently only have pink or purple.

Is there another photo or link to another photo of the whole blanket to get an idea of the overall shape of it, I like challenges of new patterns but I like to know what the end result needs to look like so i know I m on the right track, thanks

Row 1: Work 2 dc into 3rd chain from hook (counts as 3dc)m skip 2 chains. What does "m" mean?

It is a typo, it should have been a comma....(m and , are right next to each other on the keyboard)
