Lullaby and Goodnight Baby Cocoon and Hat Set

Lion Brand® Tweed Stripes® - Luxe Fur

GAUGE:

8 sts + 10 1/2 rnds = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st worked in the rnd (k every rnd) with 2 strands of A held tog.

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. Cocoon and Hat are worked in St st worked in the rnd (k every rnd) and are very stretchy.
2. Yarn B is worked with a single strand, yarn A is worked with 2 strands held together.
3. Less than a half ball of B is needed for the Set.
