GAUGE:

18 sts + 24 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS) with larger needles.
22 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) in cable patterns with larger needles. 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.

I just finished this sweater last night! It was a really fun project. I don't know why people are saying that there are mistakes in the pattern. It seemed ok to me. Unfortunately I finished it a week after it was cold enough to wear it lol. I can wait until fall :)
