GAUGE:

12 1/2 sts + 25 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.

Grace Cardi and Hat Reviewed by angela daniels on 2009-06-02 *****
Cute sweater! I made this for my neighbors baby. This was my first sweater and it turned out great. I doubled the yarn and used 10 1/2 needles. It came out nice and thick. She wore it all winter with matching mittens and hat!
