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.

Sunshine Day Baby Throw Reviewed by witchlist on 2010-03-14
I've made two of these baby throws, one in original colors that I feel look as if it is made for a girl, and the other I mixed other Lion Brand and Color Ease colors of my own choice for a more baby boy look. EVERYONE loves both of these little throws. They are soft and will be very useful at home or in the car. I included the instructions for how to clean them too. I'm going to make my sister in Montana one to take as she travels to and from her small town. Now to choose exciting color combinations for her! I love these little throws!
