So, I went out and googled picking up stitches and found the very situation I created on the same blanket. Someone on the Mason Dixon KAL blog had asked the question I had. After perusing through the answers, watching a pickup stitches video and re-reading the instructions for the blanket I found my error. I misread "knit 36 garter ridges" as knit 36 garter rows. Garter ridges=2 rows per ridge. That's why I was having a problem and why my blanket looks so darn weird.
The blanket will be bound off and used as a lap blanket at home. The intended person to receive it will have to be happy with a couple baby hats. :)
I do intend to start again and see if I can do it right this time. So, I'll have to swap this blanket out with a baby hat on the top 10 stash kal.
