Garter Ridge Baby Cardigan
Lion Brand® Lion® Cashmere Blend
GAUGE: 17 sts + 25 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). 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.

| Garter Ridge Baby Cardigan Reviewed by cathy gerard on 2008-09-15 |
   |
| The finished sleeve was much too small for the armhole space. I had to seam up more of the sides.
