Child's Sun Top
Lion Brand® Cotton-Ease®
GAUGE: 18 sts + 38 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in Garter st (k every row). 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 love this pattern, quick to knit, made the ties longer, knit the bottom in maize, the yoke in ligt blue. I crochet small little rounds in dark blue for the flowers, it won't hook so easily on something as the lazy daisy stitch. Minnie van Rensburg.
