Answer

Hi, I saw the photo of the baby blanket. The instruction you posted is not very clear to me either. From looking at the picture closely, I can see the garter st borders should be performed first and last on each row. I would do k8, then purl to the last 8 sts and at the same time inc 6 sts envenly thoughtout this row, and then k8. You should end up with 112 sts. If this doesn't work out, please let the deaigner know. I'm sure she doesn't mind answering your question.

Thanks for visiting and submitting your question.
Happy knitting!
