GAUGE:

Rnds 1-3 = 4 x 4 in. (10 x 10 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.

Wexford Granny Afghan Reviewed by Nancy Gierszewski on 2011-01-22 *****
I made this as a baby blanket. It is so beautiful! I used white, purple and a varigated white, deep pink and purple. The baby, a girl's, big brother named her strawberry, purple strawberry.So I chose the colors with this in mind.
