Loom Knit Patchwork Garter Baby Throw
Lion Brand® Martha Stewart CraftsTM/MC Extra Soft Wool Blend
GAUGE: 15 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. The loom is configured into a square to make it easier to hold, but knitting is worked in rows across only one side of the loom.
3. Finished Throw is blocked by machine washing and drying.

| This is a very easy but time consuming project. I used different colors and yarn and it still turned out cute.
