Bubblegum Baby Set

Lion Brand® Babysoft® - Microspun

GAUGE:

15 sts = 4 in. [10 cm] in garter st (k every row) with 1 strand of A and 1 strand of B held tog. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
