Lion Brand® Microspun
GAUGE: 22 sts = 4 in. [10 cm] in K2, p2 Rib, slightly stretched. 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.

| All-Season Shell Reviewed by Lea on 2012-09-05 |

Despite checking my gauge and doing everything by the book,the collar was so small that i couldn't pass my head through it.
I had to lengthen the shoulder straps as they are really small.
Otherwise the pattern is easy to follow.
