Kites Throw 1st and last stitch in the row

I’m starting to knit the Kites Throw and the directions state to knit the first and last stitch. What color are the supposed to be in?

How exciting, and what a beautiful project!
This is also a great question.
I used the color of the first and last triangle or the same yarn as the stitch next to each.
