Make sure you make your strips the same length or you will have trouble, like I did.  Pin the whole blanket together, before starting to sew it together.  You might find every 5 stitches, easier.  When starting, I went over my tail for a few stitches, 5 or more.   Put both cast on edges togetherWhen lining up your stitches.  You want your edges to match.
