Baby Throw
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick®
GAUGE:
Rnds 1-3 = about 7 in. (18 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.
STITCH EXPLANATION:

Baby Throw Reviewed by Devora Baronofsky on 2012-12-12
This is working up very beautifully. It just didn't come out to size. My gauge was perfect, but after 12 rounds I only had 23 inches??? I have extra yarn and I'm making it larger. I wonder how it would turn out with Vanna's Baby, 2 strands held together?
