Loom Knit Baby Blocks
Lion Brand® Baby's First®
GAUGE: 14 stitches = about 4 in. (10 cm)
EXACT GAUGE IS NOT ESSENTIAL TO THIS PROJECT.
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.
NOTES: 1. Follow loom manual instructions for SINGLE KNITTING for how to cast on, knit, purl, and bind off.
2. Each Block is made of 6 Sides.
3. Each Side is worked back and forth in rows across one semi-circle loom piece. The curved shape of the semi-circle piece does not affect the shape of the finished knit fabric.
