GAUGE:

6 1/2 sc = about 4 in. (10 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.

NOTES:

A large hook is used to create an open fabric that will easily stretch to fit a range of sizes.

Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across - 68 sts at the end of this row.
Row 2: Ch 1, turn, working in back loops only, sc in each st across.
