NYC Skyline Afghan
Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®
GAUGE: 17 sts + 23 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). 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.
STITCH EXPLANATION: Seed Stitch
Row 1: *K1, p1; rep from * to last st, k1.
Row 2: P the knit sts, and k the purl sts.
Rep Row 2 for Seed st.

NOTES: 1. Circular needle is used to accommodate large number of sts. Work back and forth on circular needle as if working on straight needles.
2. Use a separate ball of yarn for each color. Twist yarns on WS to prevent holes.
