Cheerful Squares Baby Throw

Lion Brand® LB Collection® Cotton Bamboo

GAUGE:

1 Square = 9 3/4 in. (25 cm). 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.

Cheerful Squares Baby Throw Reviewed by Marcia Morrill on 2010-02-02 *****
I made this in LB Babysoft yarn. Used a G hook.
Pistachio, Lemon Drop, bluebell and cream. Edged it in bluebell because it,s for a boy. Several pictures are attached.

Thanks
Marcia Morrill
