Ribbed Shell
Lion Brand® Lion® Organic Cotton
GAUGE: 20 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.

| Ribbed Shell Reviewed by Josie Ziemann on 2011-05-16 |

| Really cool and really easy. They aren't really clear on what to measure for the arm hole(you're supposed to measure the cast off, too), but that could have just been me. Looks awesome when you do it right, though!
