Garter Ridge Baby Cardigan
Lion Brand® Cotton-Ease® (new)
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.

| I am not a very skilled knitter and I didn't have any problem with this. It was fun. The result is good.
