Seattle Bag
Lion Brand® Fishermen's Wool®
GAUGE: 12 stitches + 15 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) before felting in single crochet or in Stockinette stitch in the round (knit every round). 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.
