30 sts + 30 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in honeycomb pattern with larger needle. 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.

Honeycomb Poncho Reviewed by Glennyce Moerman on 2010-01-08
Just finished thie Honeycomb Poncho and am very pleased with the results. I did the entire project with the circular needles and had never used cable needles before. What a helpful item. I did not make the neck 12 inches however because it seemed too much. Made mine 6 inches and love it that size for me. Don't have a picture but will send one if I get one. I made mine with the wheat/multi yarn and it goes with everything. Yarn very easy to work with.
