GAUGE:

12 dc + 10 rows = 5 in. [12.5 cm]. 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 less 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.

I substituted another #5 yarn and had to adjust the hook and pattern some to make the gauge but got lots of compliments on it.
