GAUGE:

16 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) in Pattern st. 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:

M1 (make 1) An increase worked by lifting horizontal thread lying between needles and placing it onto left needle. Knit this new stitch through the back loop - 1 st increased.

Norwegian Wristers Reviewed by Dianne on 2010-12-26 *****
Very fun and easy pattern to make -- it was my first introduction to stranded knitting. I would have liked there to be instructions for smaller-sized hands, my hands are a little too slender for the given size.
