GAUGE:

15 sts + 20 1/2 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.

Vintage Charmer Throw Reviewed by ESA AUTEN on 2010-05-24 *****
I love this pattern! It was easy to do and I look forward to starting my second blanket. This time I am going to use Natures Choice Organic. My first project I used a super fine merino/cashmere blend and it turned out perfect!
