GAUGE:
18 sts + 27 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) over Tuck St. 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.

Lauren Scarf Reviewed by CATHLEEN BAKER on 2012-12-10
Just finished mine in cream and absolutely LOVE it! What had me the most wary of this pattern was not the cables but the 245 stitch rows...decided I liked the picture well enough to give it a try. It knitted up quick...started it Saturday evening and finished on Monday....just in time for the first cold weather of the season. I highly recommend this pattern!
