Pattern Details
c2c stitch (Corner to Corner): This stitch is made by starting in one corner (the bottom right corner or row 1) of a square graph and following the graph diagonally to the opposite square of the graph (ending in row 99). Here is a video to help you get started.

Rows 1-50: In these rows, you will increase the squares at the beginning of each row.

Rows 1-50: In these rows, you will increase the squares at the beginning of each row.
Rows 50-99: The last half of the graph is worked by making a decrease at the end of each row.
Changing colors: This is the trickiest part of the pattern. When the pattern changes colors, simply pull the new color yarn when you make the slip stitch as you finish the previous square. Don’t cut the old color if you are not finished with it. Simply leave the yarn hanging until you come back to it in the next row. Fasten off the color only when the color is done in the graph. Tuck all the ends in. When I start a new color, after I pull it through the slip stitch, I make a small knot to secure it in place and then tuck in the end. Here is a video:
