Lion Brand® Homespun®

GAUGE:

12 sts + 16 rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in Wave Stitch pattern. 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.

Catch the Wave Afghan Reviewed by Deb Snyder on 2012-08-30 *****
I have made this afghan many times as a baby gift. I make it in a single color and only use 4 skeins of yarn. It makes a wonderful gift for a fall/winter baby.
