Sutter's Mill Throw

Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick®

GAUGE:

8 sts = 4 in. [10 cm] over 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.

Sutter's Mill Throw Reviewed by Sharon Nejedlo on 2010-01-30 *****
I LOVE this pattern. I made it for an afghan for my daughter to take to college. She wanted it a bit longer, so I just added a couple of cable patterns to the length. It is VERY warm and thick and cozy, which was what she wanted. It is easy to make because you make it in 24 stitch rows that you put together later. That means you can take it with you anywhere to work on it, even a plane! The pattern is very easy and knits up fairly quickly.
