GAUGE:

16 sc = 4 in. (10 cm) with A. 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:

sc2tog (sc decrease) Insert hook into st and draw up a loop. Insert hook into next st and draw up a loop. Yarn over, draw through all 3 loops on hook.
hdc2tog (hdc decrease) Yarn over, insert hook into st and draw up a loop. Insert hook into next st and draw up a loop. Yarn over, draw through all 4 loops on hook.

Reviewed by deletestereo on 2012-04-02 *
I'm shocked that there are so many positive reviews for this pattern. In order to achieve a cute bib that looked remotely like the image in the pattern required MASSIVE overhaul to the pattern itself. Making the bib by following the pattern verbatim yielded an ugly rectangular blob that was "cute" by no stretch of the imagination. I'd steer far clear of this pattern
