Knit Sampler Throw
Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®
GAUGE:
16 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) in Ridge 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.

Knit Sampler Throw Reviewed by celeste alderson on 2012-10-16
Love the pattern, but, I needed 4 skeins of the toffee for 7 squares and 4 skeins of brick to make 7 squares. The other 3 skeins were fine when making 6 squares. Just sayin'.
